Second Najib cabinet

Najib Razak formed the second Najib cabinet after being invited by Tuanku Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah to begin a new government following the 5 May 2013 general election in Malaysia. In order to be the Prime Minister, Najib sworn in before the Yang di-Pertuan Agong on 6 May 2013. Prior to the election, Najib led (as Prime Minister) the first Najib cabinet, a coalition government that consisted of members of the component parties of Barisan Nasional.

A new Cabinet was announced by Najib on 15 May 2013. It was the 19th cabinet of Malaysia formed since independence. The ministers and deputy ministers were then sworn in before Yang di-Pertuan Agong Abdul Halim on the following day. Notably, the two main ethnic Chinese-majority parties in Barisan Nasional, the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) and Gerakan declined to join the cabinet due to their dismal performance in the election.

On 25 June 2014, Najib announced a cabinet reshuffle, which saw the return of the MCA and Gerakan to the cabinet.

After the 1MDB scandal occurred in 2015, Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, who criticized this issue, was removed from his position by Prime Minister Najib. Najib faced public demands for resignation amid allegations of corruption.
