Following last week’s announcement of key ministers for Malaysia’s 10th prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s cabinet, the deputy minister roles have been announced tonight by Anwar, who is also the finance minister.
The announcement comes after the prime minister’s audience with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah for the presentation of the list of names, with selected ministries to receive two deputy ministers.
Key departments that help shape and define the automotive and mobility industries include the ministry of transport (MOT), ministry of international trade and industry (MITI), works ministry (KKR), ministry of finance (MOF), and in this age of electric vehicles, the ministry of environment and water (KASA).

Great job DSAI and team. Now get on and start working on it
A government of compromises and when you compromise the Government, it will come crashing down the same as PH1.0
Come on bro, can you just move on and stop talking bad about PH. Btw, since you like PN so much, then why PN love to bankrupt our country economy, making our people more suffer, Muhyiddin and his gang have been lying so many times to all of us and stealing our rakyat money. How much worse than BN and PH. Did you think you should continue to support PN. Why care about you
Anwar the Great.
Anwar the Great Pretender
The best pretender was honestly Najib. He managed to fool too many people into thinking the country had no debt and was on an upward trend, so many dumb people believed him even after he went to jail for stealing billions of dollars.
Stupid troller trying pretend to be Donkey when they OG has registered avatar in PaulTan. Hey stupid. If your ID is fake, what you said here is also fake.
Honeymoon is over. Time to do some work
Time to bring back F1. Yes, please also add another event for WEC
F1 not relevant.
Yes, you love PN right?
Please refer to the facts rather than politicized the issue.
“The ever-decreasing number of viewers, visitors and number of tourist arrivals since several years ago meant the government would be at a disadvantage, as it has to bear the high costs of organising the event annually.”
Why not, if PN continues to rule on, economy will decline and Sepang can easily close shop including F1 not going to return forever and MotoGP will also same…PN loves to bankrupt country by lockdown too much during pandemic and also didn’t help the poor but not interested in carrying economy, people, health, tourism and other issues, but just interested for themselves
Agree bro. Really support. Shows that you love Malaysia
finally we get many borneo representative in small cabinet.
haha…
BINGUNG
cepat…sedang tunggu Nasi Goreng v2.0
Brilliant choice! Good hope for this government to go full term.
Ask Zahid 1st. He is the deciding factor.
Great. Let’s hope all behave and work professionally for the common good and save our nation of Malaysia
Mantap Pak Abu
Since PM has taken first step to forgo Mercedes S600,Why cant his new menteris forgo those Alphards/Vellfires?
Are we saying our X70 no class,third world or pure junk?
Time for our ministers to walk the talk,a unity government will bring much displeasure to His Royal Highness YDPA,for undue wastages.
Since the pandemic,half of the M40 has become marginal B40 or purely B40.
Rakyat is appalled that MACC is checking on the 92Billion Rm controversial spending by MooMoo.This is another “1MDB 2.0” size fiasco.
By the time the “shit” is uncovered,people charged like the merpati,Billions of Rm have evaporated into thin air.
Even if we bring back bastard Joe Loe,he only has a dozen credit cards after a body search.Once our billions r looted,it is stashed elsewhere for those crooks to spend.
X70 got no spare parts. Later if the car kena accident….the menteri need to wait months just to get the parts fixed. later thr menteri cannot do job or attend meeting
the keyword is TOYOTA. for reliability.
Hoi.. Hoi ya hoi… Siapa sokong penyamun
And which government are you comfort with. Don’t just keep on saying by complaining this and that and never say “Hoi.. Hoi ya hoi… Siapa sokong penyamun”. Why not talk on why PN is not doing anything at all by not caring poor, economy, social, health, tourism and others.
Just stop annoying this and that, drop that and move on from your nonsense talking
