SELANGOR Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari has admitted suggesting that PKR deputy president Nurul Izzah Anwar take over his role as Selangor Menteri Besar.

Amiruddin said that he had voiced the proposal to Nurul Izzah and it was up to her to take it up or not.

"I can say that maybe it's a good formula for placing Nurul Izzah so there isn't any perception or stigma linked to nepotism and such.

"Honestly, I have told Nurul Izzah herself, it's up to her whether she wants to take it or not," he said on Khairy Jamaluddin and Shahril Sufian Hamdan's podcast, Keluar Sekejap as reported by Bernama.

He was responding to Khairy's question on whether there was a possibility that Nurul Izzah would contest a Selangor state seat and become the Selangor Menteri Besar.

Amirudin, the Gombak MP, also stated his willingness to undertake duties at the federal level.

"If you ask me - if you are ready? Yes, I've considered going to Federal (level)," he added. – November 22, 2025
