We shall see how the new cabinet performs.
Appointing Muhyiddin as Education Minister is a good move because it shows the importance the leadership attached to education.
Ler’s hope the new cabinet will deliver as promised based on the 1Mlaysia concept as espoused by Dato Najib.
The fact that manyi long-standing old guards and those perceived as corrupt have been replaced with new faces is refreshing.
However, the public’s expectation of the new cabinet is high and it is incumbent upon them to perform and deliver, failing which they must resign.
Salam Kak Ton,
this new cabinet is made of recycled wood eaten by anai-anai, a lot of dead rats on the shelves, rotten, bad smell permeating through the already polluted malaysian air.
it's like drinking left-over coffee, reheated and laced with expired creamer.
ouchhh, i think i got stomach ache already bah.
