SHAH ALAM - Former Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah has dismissed rumours that he would be named as a candidate for the state elections next month.
He was responding to earlier claims on Twitter that he would be vying for a state legislative assembly seat in Selangor.
The tweet read, "Speculations are rife that an ex-DG of MOH will be contesting in the DUN Selangor?"
To this, Noor Hisham responded, "No news but creating news."
Dr Noor Hisham, who played a crucial role during the Covid-19 pandemic, called it a day after serving the country for 35 years on April 19.
He said he had no plans after retirement and wanted to rest.
Perikatan Nasional is set to unveil its candidates for Selangor, Kedah and Penang later today.
