TANJUNG MALIM: A letter of support does not mean that an appointment is a given, says Defence Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

"Many people come and ask for my support for various matters, and I usually endorse (them). But my support does not mean it is confirmed to be successful," he said, referring to his endorsement for the son of Datuk Seri Ikmal Hisham Abdul Aziz to be appointed to Pharmaniaga's board of directors.
