Azmin: No intentions to contest in state election

 

Former Selangor menteri besar Azmin Ali said he does not intend to contest in the upcoming state election.

The Bukit Antarabangsa incumbent - who lost his Gombak seat in the 15th general election - said he would be making way for fresh faces.

“I have made it known that I want to take a break. I have served seven terms.

“So I think we should allow the younger generations to succeed and we have potential candidates who are very committed to the cause.

“As far as I’m concerned, that was my decision which I made six months ago immediately after the general election… I’m sticking to it,” Azmin told reporters at the Selangor Perikatan Nasional Raya open house celebrations in Shah Alam tonight.
