YAN: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob says he will not appoint members from the Opposition to be part of his Cabinet. The Prime Minister clarified that his Cabinet line-up will be announced later this week and denied every list that has been shared on social media. He added that the Cabinet line-up must get the nod from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong before it can be made public. Ismail Sabri said so far he had received encouraging feedback from opposition parties that wanted to join the National Recovery Council. Asked whether he would set the Cabinet line-up based on the representation percentage of political parties, he declined to comment.
