KUALA TERENGGANU, Dec 8 — “Syukur Alhamdulillah (Thanks to God)”, that was the reaction from Terengganu Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Razif Abd Rahman after the Sultan of Terengganu, Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin restored the Terengganu State award to him.
When contacted by Bernama, Ahmad Razif however declined to comment further to avoid from being misunderstood.
Ahmad Razif received the Terengganu State Award, Darjah Seri Setia Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin Terengganu (S.S.M.Z) about 8.30pm tonight and this was confirmed through a statement issued by the Comptroller of the Terengganu Royal Household to Bernama, here.
On April 22 this year, all the awards conferred on him had been withdrawn after receiving the same award in April 2015 and the Honourary Dato’ Paduka Mahkota Terengganu Kehormat (DPMT) award which carried the title Datuk in 2012.
Ahmad Razif, who is also the Seberang Takir State Assemblyman, took the oath as Terengganu Mentri Besar succeeding Datuk Seri Ahmad Said on May 12 2014. — Bernama
