No Overlap Between PMO Daily Briefing And Role Of MADANI Govt Spokesman

KUALA LUMPUR, March 3 (Bernama) -- The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) Daily Briefing which began last Saturday does not overlap with the duties of MADANI Government spokesperson Fahmi Fadzil.

The Prime Minister's Senior Press Secretary Tunku Nashrul Abaidah said the PM's Daily Briefing instead serves as a complement in strengthening the government's communication structure.

"The PMO Daily Briefing focuses more on the daily developments and work of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, his explanations on pressing current issues.

"It is also instructions to ministries and agencies to ensure that government policies are implemented in an orderly and effective manner," he said through the Prime Minister's Office Daily Briefing which was broadcast live on Anwar Ibrahim's Facebook and PMO Malaysia's Facebook today.

Meanwhile, Fahmi, who is also the Minister of Communications as the MADANI Government Spokesperson, is responsible for explaining issues and questions involving government policies, as well as decisions made in the Cabinet Meeting.

"The PMO Daily Briefing is not a replacement for the MADANI Government Spokesperson (Fahmi)," said Tunku Nashrul.

The PMO Daily Briefing will be broadcast on Anwar Ibrahim's Facebook and PMO Malaysia's Facebook at 11 am and 5 pm according to the requirements conveyed by Tunku Nashrul.

On Jan 31, 2023, Fahmi confirmed his appointment as the spokesperson for the MADANI Government.

Commenting further, Tengku Nashrul said that with a more comprehensive communication strategy, the government can ensure that the people receive accurate information in addition to cutting off slander and false information quickly and effectively.
