IPOH: Orang asli activist and lawyer Bah Tony, who quit the DAP about two months ago, has joined PKR.

Perak PKR vice-chairman Chang Lih Kang said Bah Tony, whose full name is Amani William-Hunt Abdullah, joined the party recently as an ordinary member.

“I only knew about it last month during a party meeting. He submitted his application directly to the federal level,” he told The Star.

Chang, however, declined to comment further.

Attempts to reach Bah Tony for comments were unsuccessful.

It had been reported that Bah Tony, who joined the DAP in 2011, left the party in October last year due to “personal reasons”.

Several online media sites and blogs had speculated that Bah Tony quit DAP because of differences with state chairman Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham.

Bah Tony had been working closely with Perak PKR even when he was still a DAP member and had been widely tipped to join PKR last year after quitting DAP.
