Wong Chen letak jawatan ahli Dewan Rakyat, kosongkan kerusi Subang
Wong Chen berkata surat peletakan jawatan diserahkan kepada speaker Dewan Rakyat pada 5 Ogos.
Wong Chen has represented the people of Subang in Parliament since 2018, retaining the seat as a PKR candidate in the 2018 and 2022 general elections. Petaling Jaya reports that Wong Chen has taken office as an MP and vacated the Subang parliamentary seat today at 5 PM. Wong officially lodged his resignation at the Speaker of the Dewan Rakyat, Johari Abdul, on August 5th via Facebook.
He stated that the period of three days for parliament staff to prepare for the vacancy of Subang parliamentary seat had been agreed upon beforehand. Wong plans to dispense with the title of "Yang Berhormat" on all promotional materials, signs and correspondence shortly. He also announced that he will hold a media briefing on Wednesday.
Wong further shared a video displaying him placing books in a box a few minutes before the announcement. Previously, he grabbed attention while attending a Bersatu Malaysia party meeting in May, which was hijacked by former PKR leader Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.
