ALOR SETAR, March 13 (Bernama) -- Suka Menanti assemblyman Datuk Zamri Yusuf has been named the new opposition leader in the Kedah State Assembly, replacing Datuk Johari Abdul who vacated his Gurun assembly state seat in December last year.
The appointment of the PKR assemblyman was announced by speaker Datuk Juhari Bulat before the start of the oral question and answer session at the Kedah State Assembly sitting at Wisma Darul Aman, here today.
Juhari also informed that the Gurun state seat would remain vacant until the end of the term.
