PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (pic) who is leading the Unity Government to administer the country for one year, is keeping his cards close to his chest on a Cabinet reshuffle.
Met by reporters at a thanksgiving ceremony in conjunction with One Year of Madani Government Administration here on Thursday (Nov 23) night, Anwar was asked whether there would be a Cabinet reshuffle in January.
"Why January, why not December? said Anwar jokingly without commenting further.
Rumours of a Cabinet reshuffle were in the mill following the vacancy of the domestic trade and cost of living minister vacated by Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub who passed away on July 23.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Sabah, Sarawak Affairs and Special Duties) Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali is currently the acting minister for the portfolio. - Bernama
