Anwar expected to meet King to present list of deputy ministers on Dec 9


PETALING JAYA: Each ministry may only get one deputy minister except for key ones in line with the principle of a leaner administration under the new unity government, sources have said.

“It is likely that most ministries will get only one deputy except for key ones like Finance,” said sources, adding that it is likely that ministries where two or portfolios had been merged into one, may get an extra hand.
