The “extraordinary” political climate in the country has made it necessary for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to take up the finance portfolio, said newly minted Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.

Rafizi, in his maiden presser as minister this morning, said the move was to not dissatisfy any component parties within the unity government.
