Lee Chean Chung hints at quitting as PJ MP

He says there is a ‘very strong’ possibility his constituents may lose their MP due to PKR’s failure to take disciplinary action against him.

Lee Chean Chung hints at quitting as PJ MP

Petaling Jaya MP Lee Chean Chung has suggested that the constituency might lose its elected representative due to PKR's unwillingness to take disciplinary action against him. Lee is among several PKR MPs who are barred from accessing the MyKhas portal, which manages parliamentary allocations. At a Bersama event in Petaling Jaya, Lee stated that he had responded to PKR's disciplinary board and requested appropriate punishment.

However, if PKR fails to take any action, Lee hinted that Petaling Jaya could lose its MP. He advised constituents not to blame those who resign but to hold the party accountable for failing to uphold discipline and its code of conduct. Lee's decision to attend the Bersama launch, despite not being a party member, drew attention.

He questioned why PKR members could attend Umno programs but not participate in his own constituency's events. Lee also supported the DAP's call for equal constituency allocations for all MPs, regardless of political affiliation. In June, Lee resigned from PKR's central leadership council after losing access to the MyKhas portal, but he remained a party member and intended to continue serving in Parliament until dissolution.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reiterated that the barring of these MPs from accessing the online portal did not imply that their constituents would miss out on approved development projects.
