Thanks be to God. I extend my love for the generous consent of His Majesty the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Al-Musta’in Billah, on my appointment as the Prime Minister of Malaysia.

Thanks also to all Members of the House of Representatives for their support and trust. God willing, I will carry out this duty and trust for Malaysia.

However, there are no other statements from him other than the 2 tweets thanking for the appointment. We will be looking out for his first proper statement and short term plans for Malaysia, as Malaysia is still deep in the trenches in the war against the COVID-19 pandemic.
