Tahniah Senator Syed Shahir (8/6/12) Posted: 07 Jun 2012 09:41 PM PDT Pada hari Jumaat yang penuh barakah ini sahabat baik saya Tuan Syed Shahir bin Syed Mohamud, mantan Presiden MTUC, selamat mengangkat sumpah sebagai Ahli Dewan Negara atau Senator mewakili kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang. Saya merasakan perlantikan ini amat wajar dan kena pada orangnya memandangkan Tuan Syed yang saya kenali adalah merupakan seorang pemimpin dan pejuang rakyat yang amat istiqomah, berkaliber dan berwibawa. Beliau seorang yang tegas tetapi sangat tajam dalam berfikir dan membuat keputusan. Secara peribadinya seorang yang sangat baik hati dan menghormati serta menghargai sumbangan dan jasa kawan-kawan. Saya doakan semoga beliau diberikan kekuatan oleh Allah swt untuk menjalankan amanah barunya ini dan diberikan keupayaan untuk melaksanakannya dengan baik dan tekun. Tahniah YB Senator Tuan Syed Shahir. * foto (atas) YB Tuan Syed segak mengangkat sumpah di Dewan Negara pagi tadi (ikhsan dee) ** terkini The Star online: FIVE NEW SENATORS SWORN IN: KUALA LUMPUR: Pahang MCA Wanita chief Datuk Lim Nget Yoon was one of five first-time Senators sworn in at Parliament on Friday.
