Tun Juhar Mahiruddin has been reappointed as the Yang di-Pertua Negeri of Sabah for his fourth term, extending his service. This reappointment signifies a continuous tenure that began in 2011.
Reappointment for Fourth Term

Tun Juhar Mahiruddin received his instrument of appointment for a further two-year term as Sabah governor. This latest term is set to run from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024. The ceremony for the appointment took place at Istana Negara and was attended by prominent figures including the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister.
Extended Service Duration

With this reappointment, Tun Juhar, aged 69, will have served as the Sabah governor for over a decade. He was initially appointed to the position of the 10th Sabah Governor on January 1, 2011, marking the beginning of his long service.
Removal of Term Limits

The constitutional framework governing the Sabah governor's tenure was altered in December 2018. At that time, the Sabah Legislative Assembly passed an amendment to the state Constitution, which effectively removed the previous two-term limit for the governor. This legislative change paved the way for Juhar's subsequent reappointments.
