DAP Deputy Chairman Loke Siew Fook will remain as the Deputy Transport Minister despite announcing his intention to resign from the Cabinet, according to reports. The Setiausaha Agung accompanied Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim on a three-day work visit to Shanghai and Hangzhou at the invitation of the Chinese government. After returning to Hangzhou, Loke made a brief statement, saying that the decision to resign has already been made and that he will hand in his resignation letter to the Prime Minister once he returns home.

When asked if he would continue his desire to resign from the Cabinet, Loke stated that he has not yet made a final decision and that there will be no pressure on DAP to withdraw from the unity government. The matter will be discussed during the DAP Central Committee meeting on September 19th.
