Baru Bian re-appointed as Sarawak PKR chief

Works Minister Baru Bian has been re-appointed as Sarawak PKR chairperson.

PKR in a statement last night said Baru, 60, who is also Selangau MP, was re-appointed to the post after PKR president Anwar Ibrahim’s consultations with PKR division chiefs in Sarawak.

The meeting between Anwar and the division chiefs was held in Kuching yesterday.

However, Baru did not attend due to official duties in Lawas.

Meanwhile, in Kuala Lumpur, Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil, in a statement on behalf of Anwar, said Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department and Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh was appointed as Pahang PKR chairperson.

"The list for Penang PKR chairperson and other appointed posts will be released later,” Fahmi said.

They are Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak (Perak); Amiruddin Harun (Negeri Sembilan); Johari Abdul (Kedah); Christina Liew Chin Jin (Sabah); Zahir Hassan ( Kuala Lumpur); Halim Bachik (Malacca); Hassan Abdul Karim (Johor); Azan Ismail (Terengganu); Amran Kamarudin (Perlis); Amirudin Shaari (Selangor) and Mohamad Suparadi Md Noor (Kelantan).
