Kita to be dissolved, announces Zaid

Parti Keadilan Insan Tanah Air (Kita) will be dissolved through an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) soon, said its president Zaid Ibrahim.

In a posting on the party's website, Zaid said that the dissolution is to "remove any and all doubts that we indeed do support the opposition".

"(This is) especially in light of some of our members in Kedah and Penang being openly critical of Pakatan Rakyat... on a regular basis, making it clear that they are not interested in real issues affecting the country and merely want to embarass and ridicule the opposition," he said.

The party turned one last month and was formed after Zaid left PKR in a huff over alleged irregularities in the PKR party polls.

Its Malacca division was on Jan 11 dissolved with 60 of its members opting to join PKR.
