‘Azmin must put out political fires to survive as mentri besar’

Royal nod: Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah handing over the appointment letter to Azmin at Istana Alam Shah in Klang.

PETALING JAYA: Azmin Ali must put out four political “fires” to survive as Selangor mentri besar until the next general election, says an academic.

National Council of Professors’ political cluster head Prof Datuk Dr Mohamed Mustafa Ishak said Azmin’s appointment did not mark the end of a divide in Pakatan Rakyat caused by problems over Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim’s ouster.
