SUBANG JAYA: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has extended his condolences to the family of Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) media and strategic communications director Rozaid Abdul Rahman who passed away on Sunday (Aug 18).
The Prime Minister said Rozaid’s passing was a profound loss, as he had regarded him as both a friend and a family member.
“I have lost a friend and family member because Rozaid has been a long-time acquaintance since his days in the media. His father was a close friend in Permatang Pauh and even served as a state assemblyman.
“In the Prime Minister’s Office, he was a key figure in strategising media relations and providing a positive approach.
“My family and I pray that Rozaid’s soul will be blessed and his wife and family will be granted patience. Personally, I have lost a dear friend and comrade,” he told reporters after paying his last respects at the Putra Heights Mosque here Monday (Aug 19).
Earlier, Anwar and his wife Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, spent nearly an hour at the mosque.
