“I got the letter. I got it this evening. He sent the letter and I accepted it. I want to say Alhamdulillah and thank you to the minister. “I will make a statement later. To me, this is not a pressing matter,” he was quoted as saying. Yesterday, Tajuddin, who is the Prasarana Malaysia Berhad’s non-executive chairman got abruptly terminated by the Finance Ministry with the termination to take effect immediately. Tajuddin’s termination letter was dated May 26 with Tengku Zafrul as the signatory.

The campaign indicated that Tajuddin has dealt with the matter in a terrible manner. In the letter, Tengku Zafrul has informed of Tajuddin’s termination as the non-executive chairman of Prasarana Malaysia Berhad (Prasarana) with immediate effect and then expressed his gratitude for his services rendered.
