JOHOR BAHARU, Nov 27 (Bernama) -- The presence of less than 10 per cent of the membership at the Keadilan Wanita and Youth Congress in conjunction with the 7th National Annual Congress of Parti Keadilan Rakyat yesterday has raised a question of morals, said Umno Youth head Khairy Jamaluddin.
This arose when the leadership line-up that was elected did not represent the majority voice of the party, he said.
"If the leadership is elected by nine per cent of the membership, then whoever were elected were invalid in terms of morals. So, how do we place moral integrity on the PKR leadership if the percentage of members who voted was less than 10 per cent," he said.
Khairy said this to reporters after opening a programme organised by the Tebrau Umno Youth movement, here Saturday.
He was commenting on the poor response for the Keadilan Wanita and Youth Congress held at the Petaling Jaya City Council Civics Hall, in Petaling Jaya, yesterday.
More than 1,300 members from the PKR Hulu Selangor division had announced their resignation from the party with immediate effect.
Khairy said this development showed that the party was losing support and facing a serious leadership crisis.
