It was reported that Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad will tender his resignation at the weekly cabinet meeting next Wednesday, since he had lost to retain the UMNO Supreme Council post.
It is further speculated that there are a few others who had lost will also tender their resignation. Among them are Tourism Minister, Datuk Sri Azalina Othman Said who has also lost to retain her position while she is currently being investigated by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
It seem certain that most of outgoing UMNO President Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's men had lost their positions giving incoming UMNO President Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak a free hand in managing the party with much ease.

The Home Affairs Minister is also absent from the new lineup as are 3 Menteris Besar.
Will they do the honourable or (as expected) they will be thick skinned and claim "business as usual"?
