KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 27 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced today more or less the same Cabinet lineup that made the previous administration, with allies close to him retaining most senior posts although no deputy prime minister was named.

Among the most notable, Datuk Seri Azmin Ali from Bersatu kept his post as senior minister in charge of the International Trade and Industry Ministry and Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin as home minister.

Senator Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz was also kept as finance minister.

Khairy Jamaluddin, whose short stint as science minister overlooking the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme had been both praised and criticised, is now the new health minister.

Umno’s Datuk Seri Azalina Othman, who quit as Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker, was not named for any ministerial position.
