PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced on Friday (Aug 27) his revenue-oriented Cabinet line-up which he described as a management team that will work with the people.

       Announcing the line-up at Perdana Putra, he said he formed the Cabinet, which is a reformulation based on the current situation, for the sake of maintaining stability and putting the interests and safety of the Malaysia Family first.

       "The Cabinet has to work fast and in unity in a bid to free Malaysia from the threats of the Covid-19 pandemic, economic uncertainty and political turmoil,” he said.
