Claims of Sulaiman Md Ali having been forced to sign his resignation letter as Malacca chief minister is not true and baseless, said Malacca Umno deputy liaison chairperson Mohamad Ali Mohamad.
He said Sulaiman (above), who is Lendu assemblyperson, will continue to hold the post of Malacca chief minister until the end of his term as had been agreed.
“The top Umno leadership and five Umno division heads in Malacca, namely Kota Melaka, Tangga Batu, Hang Tuah Jaya, Jasin and Alor Gajah have agreed for Sulaiman to be the chief minister.
“We hope Sulaiman will continue to hold the post until the end of his tenure, which is for five years,” he told reporters in Malacca.
Ali, who is Sungai Udang assemblyperson, said this when met at the Sungai Udang state constituency and Tangga Batu parliamentary constituency Aidilfitri Open House last night.

He said this in response to an allegation that was uploaded on a Facebook account yesterday that Sulaiman has been forced to sign a resignation letter as Malacca chief minister.
Ali also said that Malacca Umno will continue to support Sulaiman as chief minister.
Sulaiman was sworn in as the 13th Malacca chief minister at the Office of the Yang di-Pertua Negeri on Nov 21 last year after BN won the state election.
It was the Sulaiman’s second appointment as Malacca chief minister. He was first appointed to the post on March 9, 2020, replacing Adly Zahari, who was appointed on May 11, 2018.
