Muhyiddin appropriate choice

KUCHING: Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah is of the view that Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is the most appropriate to helm the post of prime minister.

“He has experience as a deputy prime minister and he is a veteran in politics. He is humble, soft-spoken, and friendly.

“I am sure he will look after Malaysia including Sarawak and Sabah well,” he said.

He expressed gratitude that the political impasse had finally come to an end and that there would be no more political uncertainty as to who would become the next prime minister.

“Congratulations to Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin,” he said.

Meanwhile, political secretary to the chief minister Tan Kai hoped that Muhyiddin would facilitate the payment of the State Sales Tax (SST) owed by Petronas to Sarawak.

“I also hope he will return autonomy to Sarawak,” he said.
