Saya tak hilang daripada PKR, kata bekas Ahli Parlimen

Saya tak hilang daripada PKR, kata bekas Ahli Parlimen

Former Petaling Jaya MP Lee Chean Chung insists he has never been absent from the PKR party for over a year, stating that his reduced activity is due to the party's failure to address his concerns about corporate mafia issues. Lee's decision to step down as the MP in May followed his announcement of the surat tandang, which was sent via a private Facebook message just a day later.

Presidential PKR Anwar Ibrahim failed to call a party meeting throughout the year, and Bryan Ng, PKR's Deputy Chief Secretary, claimed that Lee did not attend many government and state-level meetings, including those discussing the Petaling Jaya Local Scheme. Despite this, Lee argues that he has been the one initiating discussions about corporate mafia issues in Parliament since January, and has also proposed the establishment of a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to investigate the matter.

Lee also referenced Victor Chin's allegation in March, alleging that a PKR MP demanded RM9.5 million to resolve a parliamentary corruption case involving corporate mafia issues, with no action taken against the allegation. In May, Lee claimed that his constituency funds were limited and handed over to PKR for management, followed by his removal from the Central Management Committee in June.

On July 2, Lee received a disciplinary notice from PKR's Discipline Committee, which he responded to on July 9, but received no reply. He has also sent multiple letters requesting a hearing to defend himself, but his requests were ignored. Lee claims that his party's leadership has been suspended for three years without a trial.

"The record is clear. I am not missing. I have used every legitimate channel, and every time I receive silence, restrictions, and punishment. Why is a MP advocating for investigation persecuted, while one accused of receiving RM9.5 million is not investigated?" Lee questioned.
