“I have to find another place to work. But first, I have to do some sorting out so that I can pass my work to my successor. This is the decision of the Prime Minister and I accept it,” said Kerk, who had challenged his boss Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik for Gerakan’s number one post in the party elections last year.
