KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 10: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said a Cabinet reshuffle is not being considered for now, despite the impending departure of Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook and the conclusion of Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan’s Senate term on Dec 11.
“It is too early,” he said briefly when asked whether the government intended to carry out a Cabinet reshuffle in the near future at the launch of the International Construction Week 2026 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) here.
Amir Hamzah was appointed as a senator on Dec 12, 2023, and concurrently appointed as Finance Minister II.
Earlier, Transport Minister Anthony Loke had submitted his resignation letter to Anwar; to take effect should former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak be released from prison to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest.
