KUALA LUMPUR: A former minister in Muhyiddin Yassin’s administration believes Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s Cabinet line-up will not change much from the previous one.

Annuar Musa, the former federal territories minister, said this is because those who can be part of the Cabinet come from the same pool of 114 MPs who initially supported Muhyiddin.

However, Annuar, who was speaking to reporters at an event here, said the Cabinet line-up is the prime minister’s prerogative and that no one should put pressure on him.

“The prime minister’s authority should not be undermined, let’s not pressure him. We must respect the system where this is his sole prerogative.”

He also said all MPs should feel ashamed that they were struggling for power and intent on toppling the government when the people were facing hardship due to Covid-19.
