No Confidence Trend In PKR Leadership Ongoing: Muhyiddin

MIRI, Jan 21 (Bernama) -- Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on Thursday said the trend of no confidence in the leadership of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) will be on-going as many of the party's members were aware their leaders were championing baseless platforms.

He said based on information he received many of PKR's members were frustrated of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's leadership and that of other party leaders like Selangor Menteri Besar Selangor Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim.

"Not so with Barisan Nasional, like with Umno and other BN allies, our members know that the PKR leadership plays poltical games but were not capable of developing the nation or showing ability to bring progress to the people," Muhyiddin said at a news conference after attending a luncheon organised by the Miri Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry here.

He was asked to comment on the resignation of 11 committee members, including the Youth and Wanita chiefs of the Kuala Selangor PKR division headed by Abdul Khalid, due to loss of confidence in the Selangor Menteri Besar.

Muhyiddin said when PKR was formed many of its members joined based on various reasons due to influence of the party's leaders.

"I expect more members to leave ahead of the next general election," he said.
