THE Finance Ministry today announced the appointment of Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin as Khazanah Nasional Bhd chairman.

Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, meanwhile, has been made a board member, said a ministry statement.

Making a comeback to the board is Mohammed Azlan Hashim, who was among the members who quit in May 2018 to allow the then Pakatan Harapan government to make its own appointments.

The appointments announced today are effective immediately.

Khazanah, in its own statement, said it looks forward to working with the trio.

The sovereign wealth fund said former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad stepped down as board chairman and member effective March 25.

“On behalf of the management and staff, Khazanah would like to record our thanks and appreciation to Dr Mahathir for his leadership, guidance and contributions throughout his tenure as chairman.” – Bernama, April 1, 2020.

  • Can people shut the fuck up before accusing anyone of reaping things. If you don't like the country please leave. Have some respect, to our king who appointed the PM, in this trying times.

  • Khazanah is one of the better run institutions in Malaysia, under both previous administrations. Its been managed professionally, without any political interference. Trust that this will continue under the new leadership. They certainly have their work cut out for them.
