Dr Afif's position can only be filled by PKR candidate, says Penang CM

Chow Kon Yeow says the state government would not accept candidates proposed by other parties.

The position of state Agriculture and Agro-based Industry, Rural Development and Health Committee chairman vacated by executive councillor Dr Afif Bahardin yesterday, can only be filled by a Parti Keadilan Rakyat candidate, said Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.“My statement before this was clear, in that I had asked the PKR leadership to submit a list of names to be decided on, to fill the vacated executive councillor’s position. I had asked for the list from PKR, not Parti Amanah Negara .

Chow was commenting on the proposal by Penang Amanah chairman Roslan Ahmad that Permatang Pasir assemblyman Muhammad Faiz Fadzil be appointed to fill the position vacated by Afif. Yesterday, Afif, the assemblyman for Seberang Jaya, had announced his resignation as a state executive councillor.
