The Kelantan government will discuss the position of state Bersatu chairman Kamarudin Nor as a member of the state executive council (exco) at its meeting on Wednesday.
Deputy menteri besar Fadzli Hassan said menteri besar Nassuruddin Daud would announce the decision after the meeting.
‘Wait for the exco meeting on Wednesday. The menteri besar will raise the matter, and we will discuss it.
‘The final decision will be made on Wednesday,’ he told FMT.
Fadzli was responding to rumours that the state government intends to remove Kamarudin from his exco position overseeing tourism, culture, arts and heritage.
Kamarudin had earlier said he had yet to receive any official letter from the state government regarding the matter.
Kamarudin has served in Kelantan exco since 2023
Kamarudin, the Ayer Lanas assemblyman, has been a state exco member since August 2023.
He has also led Bersatu in Kelantan for the past 10 years.
PAS-Bersatu tensions behind speculation
The rumours emerged amid tensions between PAS and Bersatu following the breakdown of their political cooperation, announced by PAS on June 8.
PAS said at the time that it would end all political cooperation with Bersatu following a special meeting of its central working committee.
