PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Newly-appointed Chief Justice Datuk Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat Friday (May 3) issued a firm reminder to judicial commissioners on their oath of office.

"They must ensure that must not only be done but must be seen to be done and I wish them all the best," she told reporters after attending the oath-taking ceremony of eleven judicial commissioners.

The Prime Minister's Office on Thursday said the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, on the advice of the Prime Minister and after consulting the Conference of Rulers, agreed to her appointment as Chief Justice effective Thursday. The 11 judicial commissioners received their appointment letters from Tengku Maimun and took their oath of office and allegiance before Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Zaharah Ibrahim and Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Datuk Seri David Wong Dak Wah.
