Annuar Musa says Muhyiddin Yassin will have a wide pool of talent to choose from to avoid the pitfalls of the previous gov't.
Umno secretary-general Annuar Musa says Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin must not be saddled with pre-conditions in appointing his cabinet."He must be given total and absolute freedom to appoint his cabinet ministers," Annuar said at a press conference at the Umno headquarters in Kuala Lumpur today.
Muhyiddin was sworn-in on Sunday as the prime minister of a Bersatu-BN-PAS coalition, with additional support from Gabungan Parti Sarawak . This includes for criminal trials against Umno leaders to be dropped, although this has been denied by Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who together with Najib Abdul Razak, are still on trial for corruption.
Meanwhile, Annuar said that Muhyiddin will have a wide pool of talent to choose from to avoid the pitfalls of the Pakatan Harapan government.
