A-G’s appointment to LTH board not without precedent


KUALA LUMPUR: The Attorney-General’s (A-G) appointment to Lembaga Tabung Haji’s (LTH) board of directors is a non-salaried position and not without precedent, says the pilgrimage fund’s chairman Datuk Abdul Azeez Abd Rahim.

He said Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali was appointed by the Govern­ment in January as it needed someone with legal expertise on the LTH board who could strengthen operations and ­management.
