Zulkifli remains humble

KUALA LUMPUR: Just minutes after Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced Datuk Seri Dr Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri’s appointment as Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in charge of Islamic Affairs, he quietly left for the mosque in Slim River, Perak, where he was scheduled to deliver his monthly lecture that evening.

Later on his way back to Kuala Lumpur, the Federal Territories mufti stopped for a while at the Sungai Buloh rest area where he chatted with members of the public who greeted and congratulated him.

After the announcement of the new Cabinet, one of the first few tweets posted by the social media-savvy Zulkifli was fittingly captioned “Babak Pertama, Episod Baharu” (First Chapter, New Episode), in an obvious reference to the new phase in his life.
