(Bernama) - Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said today Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) was losing more support with many of its leaders and supporters leaving the party.
Muhyiddin, who is the deputy president, said the people were beginning to realise that the party only championed certain individuals and did not bring benefit to the people.
“Many leaders who support PKR have begun to lose confidence. The party no longer struggles for the people but for individuals,” he told reporters after launching the national-level Teachers Day celebrations at Universiti Malaysia Pahang here.
Muhyiddin was asked to comment on the departure of many leaders and supporters from the party of late.On Saturday, the Ipoh Barat PKR branch was reportedly dissolved after 19 of its 25 committee members resigned.
Muhyiddin said PKR should dissolve and its leaders and supporters should switch their support to Prime Minister Datuk Najib Abdul Razak.
In Putrajaya on Saturday, Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim said the growing number of PKR members deserting the party proves that it is losing its foothold.
He said the PKR was now perceived as a party which was losing its ground while its dominance was eroding.
“Apart from mesmerising in (PKR adviser) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s oratory skill, PKR is losing the support of the people while its struggle is in disarray,” he told Bernama after the launch of the National Youth Day 2010 by Najib.
“(As such) we urge the remaining members of the party throughout the country to think hard and find a new direction under the auspices of a more meaningful struggle.”
