AYER KEROH: PKR has not set a time limit on Nurul Izzah Anwar’s leave of absence, says party secretary-general Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh.

“At this point, we have not imposed a time limit on the deputy president’s leave because she wants to continue her studies, and we will be ready when she is ready to resume her duties,” she said at a press conference on the sidelines of the PKR congress here yesterday.

On whether cooperation with other political parties would be discussed during the congress, Fuziah said it would depend on the motions brought by delegates.

“The president’s policy speech will, of course, address matters relating to strengthening the party, the struggle, the future, the reform agenda, institutions and so on.

“So, it is up to the delegates to engage in the debate and put forward their ideas.”

Fuziah said the PKR central leadership council (MPP) would put forward four motions covering the economy and political stability, healthcare, unity and building a harmonious society, as well as strengthening the party.

“The theme of this year’s national congress is ‘Memungar Reformasi, Membina Madani’, with memungar meaning to rejuvenate.

The national congress, which begins today, will be attended by more than 2,500 delegates.
