 Wan Hasifi Amin calls for Wong Chen to resign as Subang MP if PKR’s struggle no longer aligns with his.
Yesterday, Subang MP Wong Chen expressed fear the government led by PKR president Anwar Ibrahim would have little to show in terms of reforms at the end of its term.PETALING JAYA: A Subang PKR leader has expressed a loss of confidence in the constituency’s MP, Wong Chen, and suggested he step down from the elected post if the party’s struggle no longer aligns with his
Subang PKR deputy chief Wan Hasifi Amin said that Wong’s statement yesterday, where he lamented the lack of reforms carried out by the unity government, was unnecessary, especially coming from a PKR MP.
Wan Hasifi also claimed that the three-term MP has not attended a single divisional meeting since being elected a PKR central leadership council member in 2022, a post he lost in the party’s recent elections.
“And, until now, no Subang Pakatan Harapan committee has been formed, when it could serve as a platform for cooperation among the PH components in the Subang parliamentary constituency.
“As the grassroots machinery, we in Subang PKR want to state our disappointment and loss of confidence in Wong Chen,” he said in a statement.
Wan Hasifi called for Wong to be dropped as a candidate in the next general election, saying Subang PKR wanted an MP who is not distant from the grassroots and heeds the voice of the people.
“If Wong Chen feels that (the party’s) struggle is no longer aligned with his, then the clear and principled move he should make is to step down (as MP) respectfully.”
Yesterday, Wong announced that he was taking a two-week break from work for a family holiday, during which he will ponder his future in politics.
The former PKR central leadership council member said he could not shake a deep worry that the government led by PKR president Anwar Ibrahim would have little to show in terms of institutional reforms at the end of its parliamentary term.
Wong was aligned with former PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli during the party’s elections last month. He lost his seat on the PKR central leadership council, while Rafizi was defeated by Nurul Izzah Anwar and subsequently offered his resignation from the Cabinet.
Wong was first elected an MP in 2013, when he won the contest for the Kelana Jaya seat for PKR with a 28,827-vote majority.
He was then fielded to contest the Subang seat in 2018, winning by a convincing 92,353 votes before recording a bigger victory in the 2022 general election with a 115,074-vote majority. - FMT
