SHAH ALAM, Aug 14 – Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said he is more comfortable to continue leading the administration of the state government, despite speculation about a potential Cabinet reshuffle at the federal level.
He said that his commitment, among other things, was to ensure the continuation of the state development plan, particularly focusing on the effective implementation of the ongoing First Selangor Plan (RS-1).
Amirudin, who is also Gombak Member of Parliament, said that thus far, he has not been informed of any plans to appoint him as a Cabinet minister, in fact, he said that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, has also denied the reshuffle.
“Thus far, there have been no indications that I am being considered for a Cabinet minister position,” he said.
“As a loyal PKR member, I will fulfil any responsibilities entrusted to me if I am appointed as a Cabinet minister in the future,” he added, addressing speculation that a Menteri Besar from PKR might be named to the federal Cabinet.
Anwar reportedly denied that there would be a reshuffle in the Cabinet soon.
