ANYONE, including judges from Sabah and Sarawak, can become the Chief Judge of Malaya or Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak, Minister in the Prime Minister's department, Datuk Zaid Ibrahim said.

Replying to a question from Datuk Eric Enchin Majimbun (BN-Sepanggar), he said the person had to be qualified to assume the post.

"We have a commission to oversee the appointment of judges based on certain criteria including integrity and ability," he said.

Zaid added that a committee had also been set up to settle the backlog of cases.
