‘Awal lagi’, kata Anwar berkait rombakan Kabinet

Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim remained tight-lipped when questioned about the possibility of a cabinet reshuffle, stating "still early" in response to inquiries from reporters. The Prime Minister addressed the Utusan Malaysia report suggesting two ministers might vacate their positions, with Loke Siew Fook potentially stepping down after Najib Razak's conditional pardon allowing him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence for corruption.

The removal would take effect upon Najib's return home. The RM50 million bail, required for Najib's house arrest, has been released, but the Attorney-General's Chambers has requested a temporary halt while awaiting clarification on the release order from the Court of Appeal. Anwar also stated that Amir Hamzah Azizan, the current senator, had not informed him about the expiration of his term in December. Amir was appointed to the Dewan Negara on December 12, 2023.
