PASIR MAS: The Amanah national leadership committee will decide who will replace the late Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub as the new party deputy president in December.
Party vice-president Datuk Mahfuz Omar said committee meetings had just started and they had yet to receive a list of candidates.
"The system in Amanah differs from parties like Umno and PAS. We do not contest for posts as these are decided by 27 people (in the committee)," he told reporters after opening the Pasir Mas Amanah annual meeting in Tendong here on Friday (Nov 3).
Mahfuz said the 27 elected committee members would then meet to choose the party president, deputy president and secretary.
Salahuddin, who was domestic trade and cost of living minister, died on July 23 this year after suffering a brain haemorrhage. – Bernama
