PETALING JAYA: Caretaker health minister Khairy Jamaluddin is still unsure where he will contest in the 15th general election (GE15).
“If I knew that, I wouldn’t be so worried,” he said in jest to reporters on the sidelines of the Clinical Research Malaysia (CRM) conference today, before adding that he would “leave it to the party’s leadership (to decide)”.
Khairy, who has held the Rembau parliamentary seat since 2008, said last month that he was asked not to defend the Rembau seat to make way for Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan, who wanted a role in federal-level politics.
“I was (recently) sent a message by Mohamad to get out of the way. I’ll follow what Umno wants and where they want me to contest. It’s okay,” he had said.
