KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 10): Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said on Tuesday that it is too early to discuss a possible Cabinet reshuffle amid  potential changes involving two members of his administration.

“It is still too early,” he told reporters on the sidelines of the opening of International Construction Week 2026.

One potential vacancy involves Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan, whose tenure as a senator is due to expire on Dec 11. He may be reappointed for another three-year term if he is to remain in the Cabinet.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke has also pledged to resign if former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is allowed to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest.

Najib's proposed house arrest arrangement has been put on hold pending further examination by the Attorney-General's Chambers of the conditional pardon order and its implications following the High Court's order of discharge after he settled his RM50 million fine.

Political tensions have also been simmering between Anwar's Pakatan Harapan and Umno, a key partner in the government, following direct electoral contests in recent state elections.

Umno president and Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has openly called for an early general election, while Anwar has repeatedly said his priority is to revive the economy and improve the people's well-being.
