Tun Faisal reminds Bersatu reps of RM10mil pledge
The Bersatu information chief says elected representatives who quit the party must give up their seat and pay the party RM10 million.
Bersatu's information chief, Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz, has cautioned elected party representatives that they must relinquish their seats and pay RM10 million in compensation if they leave the party. In a Facebook post, he reminded members of the oath and pledge they signed when elected, stating that any party expenditure using an elected representative's allowance would be considered haram.
Tun Faisal also shared a screenshot of a pledge document, which stated that representatives would need to resign from their state assembly, parliamentary or senatorial positions if they quit the party. The warning comes after Terengganu executive councillor Razali Idris hinted at leaving Bersatu for a new party, following his resignation as Terengganu Bersatu chairman.
Razali, in response to Tun Faisal's remarks, said that his pledge included compliance with party directives that do not conflict with Islamic teachings.
