Business as usual for Melaka govt, says Adly

MELAKA: The Pakatan Harapan-led Melaka government is still functioning as normal, says Chief Minister Adly Zahari.

He said the state government’s machinery will go on as normal despite Bersatu exiting Pakatan Harapan and the move by PKR to sack its deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali that had affected the stands of two lawmakers in the state, who are in Azmin’s camp.

“I will be still the Chief Minister at this juncture and administration will continue as normal, ” he said Tuesday (Feb 25).

Adly said the weekly state executive council meeting (exco) will also continue as normal on Wednesday (Feb 26).

Earlier, the Chief Minister held an emergency meeting with Pakatan lawmakers at Seri Negeri in Ayer Keroh here that was attended by 13 assemblymen.

Melaka Education, Science and Technology, Green Technology and Innovation Committee chairman Noor Effandi Ahmad from Bersatu was also seen attending the meeting.

Noor Effandi, who is Telok Mas assemblyman, declined to comment when approached by the media.
