Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department for Islamic Affairs Senator Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki

WITH tens of thousands of ‘likes’ on his Facebook page and a few more thousand followers on Twitter, it is safe to say that Senator Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki is popular on social media.

It is easy to see why – the Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department for Islamic Affairs, only in his sixth month of office, is prompt in responding to diverse religious queries and comments. Similarly, his boss, the minister in charge of Islamic affairs Datuk Seri Jamil Khir Baharom is also well-connected online, with his own thousands of friends and followers on social media.
