KUCHING (Dec 3): Petra Jaya Member of Parliament Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof created history as the first Malaysian from Sarawak, one of the Borneo states in Malaysia, ever appointed as deputy prime minister. For the late Yusof, it was a struggle between life and death for the nation but for Fadillah the struggle is definitely more than that. By now, Fadillah’s popularity was not just limited to Petra Jaya. Following his success in retaining his Petra Jaya seat in GE13, Fadillah was promoted to full minister to helm the Works Ministry in 2013. With this new trust placed on him by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who also named him Plantations and Commodities Minister, Fadillah is certainly able to uphold that responsibility as he has shown over the years.
