KUALA LUMPUR – In a social media post of Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, it reads that he has turned down the Cabinet post to focus on preparing UMNO for the 15th General Election.

He said that they will take into consideration the grassroots’ vote and needs of Perikatan Nasional to put back the people’s faith in the government following the ‘trust deficit’ in the previous administration.
