PRIME Minister Anwar Ibrahim will be announcing the list of deputy ministers tonight. 

Anwar said he would be meeting the Agong this evening to present the list of names. 

“I will have an audience with the Yang di-Pertuan Tuanku (Agong) this evening and, God willing, at 8.15pm tonight, we will announce the names of the deputy ministers,” he told reporters after performing Friday prayers at Masjid Jamek Kampung Baru in Kuala Lumpur today. 

Anwar disclosed this when asked if he will be meeting the Agong in the evening. 

Earlier, the prime minister mingled with members of the public and had lunch at a restaurant near Masjid Jamek Kampung Baru at 12.40pm before performing Friday prayers. 

Anwar arrived at the mosque around 1pm, in a blue baju Melayu and samping, accompanied by the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Mohd Na’im Mokhtar and Titiwangsa MP Johari Abdul Ghani. 

He also greeted members of the congregation before entering the prayer hall to listen to the sermon. – Bernama, December 9, 2022.
