PASIR MAS: The Amanah national committee for the 2023-2026 term will decide next month on the party deputy president post, which has been vacant since Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub’s demise.
Amanah vice-president Datuk Mahfuz Omar(pic) said the party has a different system compared to other political parties when it comes to positions.
“The system in Amanah is different from those of parties like Umno and PAS.
“We do not contest for specific posts as they are decided by the 27 national leadership committee members, who are elected at the national level,” he told reporters after opening the Pasir Mas Amanah annual meeting, Bernama reported.
Mahfuz said the 27 elected committee members would then meet to choose the president, deputy president and secretary.
“We should not make any speculation on who will be deputy president to fill in Salahuddin’s place,” he added.
Salahuddin, who was Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister, died on July 23 this year after suffering a brain haemorrhage.
