PETALING JAYA, April 11 – Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) president Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail(Pic) has hinted that Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim may not retain his post as Selangor menteri besar if the opposition continues to rule the state following the May 5 general election. She said PKR had several potential candidates for the post other than Abdul Khalid.
“(It) doesn’t matter who is going to be the MB in Selangor as long as the person has the right policies,” she told a press conference at the PKR headquarters, here, today.
She was responding to queries on Abdul Khalid’s future position since PKR de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim yesterday announced that Abdul Khalid would only defend his Bandar Tun Razak parliamentary seat in the upcoming polls.
Asked on the potential candidates for the top post in the state, Wan Azizah said: “Those who are contesting Selangor state constituencies.”
It was reported that Abdul Khalid might not be retained as MB against the backdrop of purported differences between him and PKR deputy president Mohamed Azmin Ali.
