KUALA LUMPUR – Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein has been appointed the new Barisan Nasional treasurer-general, replacing Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor.
BN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the minor reshuffle was conducted after taking into account efforts to strengthen the coalition’s organisational structure.
He said the appointment was made after consulting the presidents of the BN component parties.
“However, Tengku Adnan will continue to carry out his duties as Umno treasurer,” he said in a statement today. – Bernama, October 23, 2020
