Bersatu duo: Only Speaker can order us to vacate seats


PETALING JAYA: Two of the six Bersatu leaders, whose membership has ceased, insist that they are still legally elected MPs. “When Parliament reopens on June 24, I will be there as a legally elected MP.

The termination letter from Bersatu does not nullify my status as an MP and does not require me to vacate the seat,” said Labuan MP Datuk Dr Suhaili Abdul Rahman.
