Welcome to this week's media news.
On May 15, Najib Razak, the Prime Minister announced the new Cabinet after the 13th General Election at 5:00 pm. Previously the Prime Minister was sworn in before the Yang di-Pertuan Agong for his second term as the Prime Minister on 6 May at 4:00 pm after Barisan Nasional won a majority in the general election.
The new cabinet announcement saw many changes, such a lineup of new ministers and some ministry changes. Many TV stations carried the announcement. RTM through TV1 provided the visuals of the announcement broadcast.
