Kamu tak boleh puaskan hati semua, kata Nurul Izzah
Nurul Izzah Anwar petik kekalahannya pada PRU15, pemilihannya sebagai timbalan presiden, dan tindakan bercuti daripada jawatan disandang.
Former Permatang Pauh MP Nurul Izzah Anwar succeeded as the PKR's Deputy President after last year's party elections. She is scheduled to take a break from the role today, following criticism since her defeat in the 2022 (PRU15) general election. Nurul Izzah stated that some people find it hard to accept her loss in the 1982 family seat of Permatang Pauh, while others are upset at her victory as the Deputy President last year.
For some, her defeat in 2022 is unpalatable; for others, her 2025 (party elections) win is difficult to accept, and for others, her departure in 2026 is hard to cope with. She said this while presiding over PKR Youth and Women's Congress at the Multi-Purpose International Trade Centre (MITC). As a three-term MP, Nurul Izzah lost to PAS candidate Fawwaz Jan in Permatang Pauh during the 2022 (PRU15) election by a margin of 5,272 votes.
The Permatang Pauh seat is considered a family seat for PKR President Anwar Ibrahim, who has held it since 1982, followed by his wife Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and their daughter Nurul Izzah. Nurul Izzah succeeded Rafizi Ramli as the Deputy President of PKR, only to resign soon after to take over the position of the Economics Minister and Pandan MP.
Recently, PKR announced that Nurul Izzah would take a leave of absence from her deputy presidency duties after the party congress. She took the decision to step down from her second-in-command role to further her personal pursuits.
