Mambong MP is Tourism Ministry's new deputy

PETALING JAYA: Datuk Dr James Dawos Mamit, Member of Parliament for Mambong, will be sworn in as Deputy Tourism Minister on Jan 13, according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office.

The vacancy came about following the resignation of Datuk Seri Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib in November last year.

Sulaiman, 41, who is also PBB Youth vice-chief, was appointed to the post in March 2008 when Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was the Prime Minister.

He retained the portfolio when Najib took over in April last year, but quit in November citing health reasons.
