GEORGE TOWN: The Penang government hopes the new Cabinet line-up will help the state reach its full potential, says Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.
"We welcome the Cabinet reshuffle announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in order to further strengthen the administration and work of the now one-year-old unity government," said Chow.
"With this, the state hopes that this new Cabinet line-up can help the Prime Minister succeed in the Malaysia Madani agenda, especially in improving the national economy and providing the best service to the people as a whole," he added.
