Quit move stirs PKR nest


Games afoot: Nurul Izzah being congratulated by Anwar and Datuk Seri Wan Azizah Ismail after delivering her speech in Shah Alam.

PETALING JAYA: Nurul Izzah Anwar’s replacement as an elected PKR vice-president must be from within the party’s central leadership council (MPP). MPP member Sivarasa Rasiah said an outsider could not be appointed to the vacant position of an elected VP.

“Under the PKR constitution, when there is a vacancy among those elected to the MPP, the council has to appoint one among themselves as a replacement. The person has to be a member of the council. He or she cannot be an outsider. The president has to abide by the constitution on this,” said Sivarasa.
