KUALA LUMPUR, 6 April 2026 – Malaysia’s Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil officiated the presentation of appointment letters for the NADI Advisory Panel (PPN) for the state of Johor yesterday, marking a key step in strengthening grassroots community initiatives.
The ceremony was held in Johor Bahru and attended by Zaliha Mustafa, Member of Parliament for Sekijang, who accompanied the minister during the event.
