‘Decision has been made’: Anthony Loke firm on resignation, to hand in letter upon return from China

DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke has firmly decided to resign as Transport Minister, stating he will hand in his resignation letter to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim upon returning from China. Loke made this announcement after a DAP Central Executive Committee meeting following the conditional pardon granted to former Prime Minister Najib Razak.

The other DAP ministers and deputy ministers will continue to serve in the Unity Government. Anwar, while traveling with Loke, has not yet decided on Loke's resignation and wants to hear Loke's explanation before making a call. Anwar also urged DAP not to bow to political interests urging it to withdraw from the government.
