No discussion of reshuffle at Cabinet meeting, says Fahmi

PUTRAJAYA: There were no discussions regarding a Cabinet reshuffle at the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday (Sept 27), says Fahmi Fadzil.

"No discussion on Cabinet reshuffle,” the Communications and Digital Minister said briefly when asked about talk of potential Cabinet changes in the unity government led by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

It was reported that there would be a Cabinet reshuffle in Anwar’s administration with several ministers expected to be dropped after the Pelangai by-election on Oct 7.

Fahmi, who is also the unity government’s spokesman, said Wednesday’s Cabinet meeting had focused on discussing and finding solutions to rice price and supply issues.

"I was made to understand that the Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu will hold a press conference later to announce the details of several decisions made regarding the issues. Let’s wait for that,” he said. - Bernama
