PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution Ismail was sworn in today as the strategic adviser of Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, reported the state’s newsletter Buletin Mutiara.

The low-key ceremony, which was held without informing the media, took place before Lim and state secretary Farizan Darus.

When called about the post, Saifuddin said he was currently in a meeting (in Kuala Lumpur) and would speak about the matter later. He will be in Penang next week.
