Remain in Parliament until dissolution, Sng tells reform-minded MPs
PBM president Larry Sng says MPs should not quit prematurely as the government still needs two-thirds majority for constitutional amendments.
Julau MP Larry Sng has urged reform-minded MPs to continue serving their constituents until Parliament is dissolved, amid speculation of a fourth PKR leader leaving the party. Sng emphasized that MPs seeking to leave their parties should wait until dissolution, as the government requires a two-thirds majority in the Dewan Rakyat to pass constitutional amendments.
The Julau MP's comments followed Lee Chean Chung's indication that Petaling Jaya might lose its MP due to PKR's failure to take disciplinary action against him. Lee, who attended Bersama's launch, stated he had responded to PKR's disciplinary board and sought an appropriate punishment for himself. He expressed readiness to part ways with PKR if the party no longer aligned with his political direction, but claimed their inaction created a strong possibility that Petaling Jaya would be without an MP.
Lee also defended attending the Bersama event while remaining a PKR member, stating he should be free to attend constituency programs. Wong Chen, another PKR MP at the event, recently resigned as Subang MP and left PKR to join Bersama.
