The PM's Resignation - What The Federal Constitution Says

Today, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin resigned as the Prime Minister of Malaysia, and was subsequently appointed caretaker Prime Minister, until a new prime minister is appointed by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. What does this all mean, and what does the Federal Constitution dictate, about what should happen next? Lawyer New Sin Yew breaks it all down for us.
