BN man among eight senators sworn-in today
The senators appointed today may have boosted the number of Pakatan Harapan senators in the Senate where BN still holds a simple majority.
But Malaysiakini understands that one of the eight senators sworn-in by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong today is from BN.
A Dewan Negara source has told Malaysiakini that the newly-appointed Ismail Ibrahim is a BN senator.
The source said Ismail's name was submitted to the Agong before the 14th general election, but due to the dissolution of the Dewan Rakyat, his appointment was put off until now.
