PETALING JAYA:

Sabah PKR vice-chairman Amin Abdul Mem has resigned as a party member, becoming the latest figure in the state chapter to exit the party.

As a result, Amin relinquishes his state post as well as his position as Semporna PKR chief after 27 years with the party.

In a statement, he cited former PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli’s departure from the party to take over Parti Bersama Malaysia.

“I am very thankful for all that I have experienced in my journey with PKR. Thank you to all my reformist comrades, especially those who were involved in paving the way for me to climb up the leadership ladder.

“To the Sabah PKR chief (Mustapha Sakmud), thank you for your support and cooperation throughout my time in the state leadership. I deeply appreciate it.

“To my friends who remain in Sabah PKR, let us respect our respective political stands and maintain our friendship,” he said.

On Monday, Tuaran PKR chief Razeef Rakimin quit the party, followed by Sabah PKR women’s deputy chief Artini Ali Taugan two days ago. - FMT
