PETALING JAYA: Agriculture and food security minister Mohamad Sabu has defended the recent appointments of Pakatan Harapan leaders to statutory bodies under his ministry.
He said the appointments were not politically motivated, adding that they would be working together with experts in carrying out their duties.
“The appointments were made after considering their reputation and involvement in the community.”
For example, they need to know the problems faced by padi farmers and fishermen before taking up a related post, he told Sinar Harian.
