Ketereh MP Khlir Mohd Nor said the appointment of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s former political secretary, Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak, as 7-Eleven Malaysia Holdings Bhd chairperson is contrary to good governance.
He said that this was proof that Pakatan Harapan and Anwar’s reform agenda was “a sham and nothing but a political tactic to dupe voters.”
“All this has happened just over a month after Anwar became prime minister.
“It is public knowledge that Farhash is a close confidante of Anwar and was his former political secretary,” Khlir said.
He referred to Farhash’s (above) appointment as an aggravation to the nexus of business and politics in the country and has told the prime minister to publicly explain how it is consistent with fair administration and political reform.
“Where are the endless promises made by Harapan of good governance and integrity in administering the nation?
“The Harapan supreme council, which has preached these values for years when in the opposition, must also explain their stance on Farhash’s appointment,” the Ketereh MP concluded.
Yesterday, the convenience store chain announced the selection of Farhash as the new chairperson, replacing Robin Tan Yeong Chin, who is also the son of the Berjaya Group’s tycoon Vincent Tan.
Robin was appointed as 7-Eleven Malaysia’s chairperson on Nov 25, 2021, but resigned to pursue other ventures.
Prior to his resignation last year, Farhash served as Anwar’s secretary and the chairperson of Perak PKR.
He said to Malaysiakini at the time that he resigned to avoid interfering with Anwar’s party presidency by running in the PKR election, in which he unsuccessfully contested to become a vice-president and the party’s Gombak division head. - Mkini
