He will be taking over from Datuk Seri Maimunah Mohd Sharif, who has been redeployed to PETRONAS for a new role.

Having served as Putrajaya Corporation president in 2022, Fadlun’s appointment received the consent of His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia.

Dr Zaliha also expressed her appreciation to Maimunah, whose works had enhanced Kuala Lumpur’s image on the global stage.
