KUANTAN: Ten PKR divisions in Pahang have approved a motion to reject any form of political cooperation with Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his Pejuang party.
Pahang PKR communications bureau chief Wan Fauzuldin Wan Samad said the Kuantan, Indera Mahkota, Pekan, Paya Besar, Maran, Temerloh, Bera, Jerantut, Kuala Krau and Lipis divisions voted unanimously to carry the motion during their annual general meetings.
The Rompin, Cameron Highlands, Raub and Bentong divisions had yet to hold their meetings, he said on Monday (April 5).
"In general, these divisions are calling on PKR to reject any cooperation with Dr Mahathir because he betrayed Pakatan Harapan by intentionally resigning as prime minister without consulting with the presidential council.
"We also believe Dr Mahathir does not want to see (PKR president) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim become the prime minister.
"Dr Mahathir really wanted to destroy Pakatan when he proposed to become prime minister for the third time under a unity government.
"Due to these factors, Dr Mahathir is not qualified to fight alongside PKR and Pakatan," Wan Fauzuldin said when contacted.
He added that should many divisions carry the motion, the party would debate the matter at its national congress.
"I ask all divisions nationwide to please decide on cooperating with Dr Mahathir. PKR must be clear and bold in making this decision," said Wan Fauzuldin.
