KUALA LUMPUR: Former health minister, Datuk Chua Jui Meng will always be remembered as not only an effective minister but an erstwhile reformist who stuck with PKR during tough times, says Anwar Ibrahim.

The Prime Minister paid tribute to his friend of almost 40 years, reminiscing about Chua’s great contributions to the country when serving as health minister and their long friendship that spanned Chua’s tenure as MP, MCA chief and PKR vice-president, to reporters gathered at the Kuala Lumpur Full Gospel Assembly Church after Anwar paid his respects here on Tuesday (Dec 5).
