KUALA LUMPUR: History repeated itself in an unexpected way after Khalid Abdul Samad was appointed Federal Territories Minister – the very post his brother Tan Sri Shahrir Samad took up in 1987, also under the administration of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
Calling it a coincidence, Khalid said he has yet to hear news from his older brother. Khalid, who is Parti Amanah Negara communications director, said he and his brother would touch base soon.
