KANGAR, Aug 26 -- The Perlis State Legislative Assembly today approved the motion submitted by Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Azlan Man, to appoint two members of the Senate.
They are Aziz Ariffin, 68, and Seruandi Saad, 54, who will hold the posts for a period of three years.
The motion to appoint Aziz was seconded by Ruzaini Rais (BN-Beseri), while Seruandi's appointment was seconded by Rozieana Ahmad (BN-Pauh), and the state assembly unanimously supported the motion.
