State PAS chief named Penang opposition leader

Sg Dua rep Muhammad Fauzi Yusoff confirms Perikatan’s decision to appoint him

3:39 PM MYT

 

GEORGE TOWN – Sg Dua assemblyman Muhammad Fauzi Yusoff has confirmed his appointment as opposition leader in the Penang state assembly, which convened today.

Fauzi, who also heads the state PAS, said the decision was made unanimously by Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) top leadership and supported by 11 of the coalition’s assemblymen in Penang.

“I was unofficially chosen by the PN leadership. The coalition also sent a letter regarding this matter to the Speaker (Datuk Law Choo Kiang) about a month ago.

“Insya-Allah, the speaker will formally announce it on Monday,” he told reporters after the opening ceremony for the state assembly’s current sitting.

Today’s sitting, inaugurated by Yang di-Pertua Negeri Tun Ahmad Fuzi Abdul Razak, is the first to be held after the state election on August 12.

Fauzi, who contested for the first time in the state polls, won the Sg Dua seat after defeating Datuk Shaik Hussein Mydin of Barisan Nasional (BN).

The state assembly is also set to have the first opposition leader from PAS in the history of Penang. In the recent election, the Pakatan Harapan-BN pact won 29 out of 40 state seats, while PN secured 11 seats, with seven from PAS and four from Bersatu. – November 17, 2023
