KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 1): Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today that while key vacancies in the Cabinet must be filled, any upcoming reshuffle is unlikely to be extensive.

Anwar said a reshuffle is necessary for the long term, but stressed that the current Cabinet still has about a year and a half left in its mandate.

“Yes, we need to fill the vacancies but a reshuffle is needed if there is a long way to go, so I think there is no need for an extensive reshuffle.

“Nevertheless, I have convened the full Cabinet to decide on the next steps to be taken but there is a need to fill the vacancies,” he told reporters after launching Perodua’s first electric vehicle at Menara Miti here.
