KUALA LUMPUR, September 16 — Saifuddin Nasution Ismail has officially stepped down as the Secretary-General of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), with former Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh taking over the role. This leadership change, announced by PKR Vice President Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, aims to streamline party operations as Saifuddin shifts his focus to his duties as Secretary-General of Pakatan Harapan and his roles in the party’s political bureau and the unity government’s leadership council.
Fuziah, who currently serves as the Deputy Minister of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living, has also been replaced as Pahang PKR chief by Rizal Jamin. Other notable changes include Mohamad Hairul Amir Sabri taking over as Perak PKR chief from Science, Technology, and Innovation Minister Chang Lih Kang, who will remain a PKR Vice President.
Additionally, the party’s Central Leadership Council (MPP) has established a management committee with Saifuddin Nasution as its advisor. This committee includes prominent figures like Nurul Izzah Anwar, William Leong, and key leaders from PKR’s youth and women’s wings. These appointments are effective immediately, reflecting a new phase in PKR’s leadership structure
