PKR vows to field better candidates this time

Scarred by a slew of defections from elected representatives and party leaders, PKR today vowed to choose better candidates for the next general election.

Delivering her policy speech at the eighth national congress in Pulai, Johor, PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail said that it will "not compromise with enemies within".

Addressing about 2,000 delegates and observers, she said that the leadership takes on board feedback that some of its candidates were "less qualified and performed poorly in Parliament or state assemblies and did not serve the rakyat properly."

"(They) should be from those who are qualified, hold true to the principles of the struggle and will not be tempted by the millions of ringgit from the enemy," she said.

PKR has been the butt of jokes following the string of defections since 2008.

Finding a silver lining in the damaging resignations, Wan Azizah said that it is good that the traitors are weeded out early.

"It's fortunate that they were exposed early and had opted to jump ship and betray the struggle. Now, they unashamedly become the tools of corruption," she said.
