No discussion on cabinet reshuffle - Fadillah

 

Deputy Prime Minister Fadillah Yusof said that there has been no discussion on a cabinet reshuffle.

“I have not heard anything about it. There is no discussion about that. That is the sole prerogative of the prime minister,” he said when asked about talks of an imminent cabinet reshuffle.

“I’m a working man. I follow orders,” Fadillah, who is also the plantation and commodities minister, told Malaysian media in Brussels, Belgium today.

Fadillah is on a Malaysia-Indonesia joint trade mission to the European Union to defend the palm oil industry following the implementation of the European Union Deforestation Regulation.

He reiterated that Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) is committed to ensuring a strong and stable government.

“We from GPS have given our commitment, and what we need now is a strong and stable government.

“Because without stability, we cannot turn around the economy’s performance, and investors will not come as there will be no clear policy, no continuity in terms of government,” he said.

Only political stability and good governance would attract investors, said Fadillah, who is the GPS parliamentary chief whip.

“This is paramount as far as Sarawak is concerned, and that has been our commitment as far as this government is concerned,” he noted.
