Resignation of Perak PKR ADUN's

This evening, we have received the most unfortunate news, that 2 PKR reps (ADUNs) from Perak have tendered their resignation via fax to the Perak Dewan Speaker. This would be a double by-election in Perak within the next 60 days.

The past few days have been rife with the reports of possible defects by both YB Jamaluddin Mar Radzi (ADUN Behrang) and YB Osman bin Jailu (ADUN Changkat Jering). Following their incommunicado status the past 3 days. Both these individuals are the same people who were embroiled in the perak "corruption scandal", where they were caught with cash.

PKR is first of all very optimistic that we will maintain our grasp on those two seats in Perak. The by-election in KT only goes to show that the Malaysian people have had enough of BN's high-handed and unscrupulous tactics. And they want CHANGE !!

The statement released by the Perhubungan Negeri Perak, Hj Osman Abdul Rahman (who is a good friend of mine), is equally strongly worded.

"Dari awal lagi kami amat yakin pertuduhan dalam kes tersebut adalah satu pertuduhan palsu yang direkacipta oleh UMNO dan BN sebagai satu ugutan politik"

"Kami percaya ada usaha-usaha oleh BN untuk memujuk dua EXCO ini untuk menyertai BN dan sebagai imbuhan terdesak Dato Seri Najib termasuk mengugurkan kes rasuah mereka"

". . . .(we wish that the 2 leaders are safe). . and hold strong to our principles and resolve. . . .

I think Hj Osman's statement says it all. . . . .

LAWAN TETAP LAWAN !!!!
