Cabinet members do have their own WhatsApp group, said Home Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.
He told this to reporters this afternoon in response to former premier Najib Abdul Razak's cynical claim that the Pakatan Harapan ministers do not communicate with each other.
Najib had a few hours ago posted on his Facebook account ridiculing Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng who reportedly said he was shocked over Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali's announcement that the cabinet had decided to cancel the RM81 billion East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project.
“It's true, they don't have a WhatsApp group. But the telephone has been around since 1876," Najib said in his post.
When asked for his response, Muhyiddin said: "We have many WhatsApp (groups)."
"We do have (group for cabinet members)," he said when asked again at a press conference in Kuala Lumpur today.
The Bersatu president was attending the launch of Harapan Youth chief Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad's book titled '9 Mei 2018 - Dari Garis Depan'.
However, Muhyiddin declined to comment on the cabinet meeting on Thursday, where the decision on ECRL was allegedly made.
He said he would leave it to the ministers responsible for the matter, and believed that there would be an official statement issued soon.
