00:00 Federal Government spokesman Fahmy Fadzil said there were no discussions of any Cabinet
00:06 reshuffle when it met today.
00:09 The Communications and Digital Minister made the comments when asked whether the Cabinet
00:13 had discussed the matter.
00:15 Speculation of possible changes in the Cabinet line-up gained traction after the civil service
00:21 heads of five ministries were moved to new positions yesterday.
00:26 Discussions about a Cabinet reshuffle emerged after the August elections for six state assemblies,
00:31 during which Perikatan Nasional gained ground in Penang, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan, causing
00:37 losses for the Pakatan Harapan Barisan National Alliance.
00:41 Malay voters had reportedly shifted their support to the opposition during the elections.
00:46 Julau MP Larry Seng had then urged Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to bring experienced Malay parliamentarians,
00:53 such as former Second Finance Minister Johari Gani and former Health Ministers Zulkifli
00:58 Ahmad and Kari Jamaluddin, into his Cabinet.
