Deputy Chief Minister Pang resigns from LDP

By Michael Kaung

FMT ALERT KOTA KINABALU: Deputy Chief Minister Peter Pang today resigned from the Liberal Democratic Party after its leaders declared that the party could no longer work with his boss, Chief Minister Musa Aman.
Announcing his decision at a press conference this morning, Pang, who replaced Raymond Tan as deputy chief minister in May last year, said he would be meeting Musa later today and tendering his resignation as deputy chief minister.

This is because he would be without a party to continue holding on to that post.

He said he made the decision to resign because of LDP's stand against Musa.

It is understood that Pang had met with Musa and other BN leaders on Sunday.

LDP leaders had declared war on Musa last week when they announced that they could no longer work with the chief minister due to various issues, including his cold shouldering their pleas for dialogue.
