I did not ‘disappear’ from PKR, says ex-MP Lee

Lee Chean Chung says he became less active in the party after concerns raised through internal channels were allegedly ignored.

I did not ‘disappear’ from PKR, says ex-MP Lee

Former Petaling Jaya MP Lee Chean Chung claims he was not "missing" from PKR for over a year, but became less active after the "corporate mafia" issue was ignored. He says he raised the issue in Parliament, met with PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, and proposed a royal commission of inquiry. Lee also cited an allegation of RM9.5 million requested by businessman Victor Chin for a legal issue involving the corporate mafia, which he said went unaddressed.

In May, the allocation for his constituency was blocked and handed over to PKR, leading to his resignation from the party's central leadership council in June. He received a show-cause letter from the PKR disciplinary board in July, but received no response to his defense, and was suspended for three years on September 30. Lee says this is punishment without trial, and questions why he, who called for an investigation, is punished, while the accused MP is not investigated.
