  "account": "Wong Chen has apologized to the people of Subang, stating that he has not regretted serving as their MP for over 13 years. The former Subang MP expressed his remorse for leaving his position earlier than the automatic dissolution of Parliament, which occurred one year before the dissolution. Wong stated that he should have waited until the Parliament was dissolved, but he chose to resign instead. He told reporters at a media briefing at the Bersama headquarters in Puchong, that his decision to resign as the Subang MP was influenced by his responsibility to uphold democracy and the Constitution. Wong's record is clear, and his conscience is truly clean. He resigned from his Subang seat on Monday, leaving PKR to join Bersatu today. Wong was among several PKR MPs present at the launch of Bersatu by former Minister Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad in May.",
