DEPUTY Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi denied that a circular had been issued to bar Kedah Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor from attending federal government events.

“I have not heard of any written order to prevent him from attending official events organised by the federal government. But I would not know if he was personally told that he could not attend.

“Maybe the Kedah menteri besar can show a written order to prove his claim of being barred from attending federal government events,” he told reporters after the Santunan Kasih Ramadan event at Masjid Jamek Kampung Sungai Gersik, in Muar.

Sanusi, in a Facebook post, alleged that he had been stopped from attending official federal government events, including the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition 2023 scheduled to be held from May 23 to 27. – Bernama, March 30, 2023.
