SARAWAK has no problem with the new cabinet line-up announced by Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob yesterday, chief minister Abang Johari Tun Openg said.

In fact, Sarawak is grateful for having its elected representatives re-appointed to the cabinet, the chief minister said.

“What is important for Sarawak is to have a stable government to continue its efforts to fight Covid-19 through the national immunisation programme,” Abang Johari told reporters at the officiation ceremony of the Oil and Gas Academy and Palm and Agriculture Academy of the Centre of Technical Excellence Sarawak Mukah Campus today.

Yesterday, Ismail announced his cabinet line-up, which comprises 31 ministers, including four senior ministers, but without a deputy prime minister.

Four elected representatives from Sarawak were appointed as full ministers while six others were appointed as deputy ministers. – Bernama, August 28, 2021.
