Terengganu Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman was convinced there is a group behind the actions of the state's former MB Datuk Seri Ahmad Said's tabling of the vote of no confidence against him.
"This was deliberately done to create tension within the state's political arena," said Ahmad Razif.
Despite all that, Ahmad Razif said, he saw the silver lining behind this incident as all the Barisan Nasional state assemblymen in Terengganu were now able to prove their undivided loyalty.
"There is a silver lining in this incident. I can see clearly the loyalty of the 15 BN state assemblymen who were with me throughout this episode," said Ahmad Razif.
He said that during a speech at a special meeting with BN component parties as well as the non-government organisations (NGOs) in Terengganu at Kuala Terengganu on Wednesday night.

On March 9, Ahmad Said moved a vote of no confidence against Ahmad Razif at the State Assembly sitting.
