KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says he hopes to return to Parliment as early as October.
The PKR president-elect, however, said he had yet to decide which seat he will contest.
"Three to four people have offered (to give up) their seats and we will discuss that further.
"I am looking at October when (Datuk Seri) Azmin Ali will table the 11th Malaysia Plan mid-term review so I can go through it and comment as an MP," he said after closing the "The Future of the Bumiputra and the Nation Congress 2018" on Saturday (Sept 1).
When told that the month of September marked 20 years since he was sacked from the government, Anwar said his cooperation with Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was "extraordinary and unprecedented".
"History shows that the animosity between us was bad – but it was fated that we are working together again to save the country from abuse of power.
"I am very grateful despite all the suffering and I don't think that this is an issue now."We are here to support Dr Mahathir and to give him the space and latitude to lead," he said.
