PETALING JAYA: With four vacancies soon in his Cabinet, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim now faces a delicate balancing act to ensure the work goes on without upsetting any of his unity government parties.
Although there is no rush to fill the spots – the Federal Constitution does not dictate a need to fill Cabinet vacancies except that of the Prime Minister – a prolonged vacancy can create public distrust, say political analysts.
