He said that the matter was raised by him during an engagement session with field officers of the Kelantan Information Department tonight.
“Through a closed-door session like this, they get the opportunity to express their views, give suggestions and raise issues that require immediate attention.
“I also remind all JaPen officers not to campaign for political parties by using government machinery,” he said in a Facebook posting.
Fahmi, who was on a working visit to Kelantan yesterday, said meetings with ministry or agency officials were among items included in his itinerary every time he visits states.
The polls will involve six states, namely Selangor, Penang, Negeri Sembilan, Terengganu, Kedah and Kelantan. — Bernama[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
