MIRI – Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) Youth chief Datuk Snowdan Lawan has urged Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) to not take in Sri Aman MP Datuk Masir Kujat who has just resigned from opposition Parti Sarawak Bersatu to become a government-friendly independent.
PRS, which is a GPS component party, said it will not accept Masir and GPS should do the same as well.
“Masir’s sudden resignation shows how urgent it is to have anti-party hopping law in place now. Loyalty to the party must be upheld by all politicians,” he said in a statement.
In a statement yesterday, Masir declared his support for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, although he did not disclose if he will be joining the government or any other political outfits.
“I am resigning from PSB after consulting my grassroot supporters. My resignation takes immediate effect. I declare full support for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.
“I support his leadership as he is doing all he can to help Malaysians through the difficult period we are facing now.”
In 2019, he left PRS and joined PSB. Last December saw him contesting as a PSB candidate for the Balai Ringin constituency in the 12th state election. He lost to Snowdan.
Meanwhile, PSB has yet to issue any official response to Masir’s decision to quit the party. – The Vibes, March 31, 2022
