Incoming PKR deputy president Nurul Izzah to focus on party unity and reforms


JOHOR BARU: Newly elected PKR deputy president Nurul Izzah Anwar (pic) aims to focus on rallying efforts within the party and implementing internal reforms as the party prepares for the 16th general election.

Fresh off her victory in PKR’s central elections, she emphasized her commitment to integrating all efforts within the party.

"Secondly, I want to implement internal reforms and move towards the next general election. I also ask for your prayers as my husband and I will be heading to Mecca to perform the Hajj after the party congress," she said when asked about her reaction to winning against incumbent Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli.

She spoke to reporters at the launch of the PKR National Congress at Persada Johor International Convention Centre on Friday (May 23).

Nurul Izzah secured the deputy president post with 9,803 votes, surpassing Economy Minister Rafizi.

In response to how Rafizi felt about the official results, he stated that the focus should be on Nurul Izzah rather than himself.

The congress will continue at the same venue on Saturday (May 24).
