KUALA LUMPUR – The service of Datuk Seri Tajuddin Abdul Rahman as the Non-Executive Chairman of Prasarana Malaysia Berhad (Prasarana) has been terminated with immediate effect.
The matter has been verified by the spokesperson of the Finance Ministry after a letter of the contract termination of the Pasir Salak Member of Parliament (MP) went viral just now.
Nevertheless, the letter dated 26 May 2021 signed by Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Aziz did not state the reason for Tajuddin’s termination.
“The Ministry of Finance (Incorporated) has agreed to end the service of YB. Datuk Seri as the Non-Executive Chairman of Prasarana with immediate effect,” said the letter.
Tajuddin was strongly criticised for the way he handled a news conference on the LRT Kelana Jaya train crash yesterday. The public slammed him for being rude, not having empathy, arrogant, racist during the conference.
Besides that, he is currently being investigated by the police for not wearing face mask while visiting the crash site and during the news conference. –MalaysiaGazette
