PKR leaders continue to be absent from meetings chaired by Anwar

A number of PKR leaders were still absent from party meetings despite a reminder issued by party secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution. 

The PKR central leadership council held a meeting today, which was chaired by party president Anwar Ibrahim.

Notably absent were, among others, PKR deputy president Azmin Ali, PKR vice-president Zuraida Kamaruddin (above) and Selangor PKR chief Amirudin Shari.

Zuraida, when met at the Selangor PKR Wanita convention in Shah Alam this evening said she had prior engagements.

"I was absent as I had a few programmes and from there I came straight here to officiate the event.

"It is part of my party responsibility to officiate the congress," she told journalists.

Zuraida, who is also the housing and local government minister, said there was no need to magnify her absence.

"My absence is not an issue as I frequently attended the meetings in the past. But after I became a minister there are ministerial duties to handle.

"Give me time to focus on my ministry and once we are stable then, God willing, I will attend the meetings," she said.

Meanwhile, when asked about his absence at the meeting today, Amirudin, who is also Selangor menteri besar, said he had to rush to another function.

His press secretary Mohamed Fareed Mohamed Ashaaree said Amirudin had to officiate a Batu PKR Wanita gathering.

PKR leaders aligned to Azmin have been absent from PKR meetings chaired by Anwar amid a rift between the two men.

However, Anwar had insisted that the party was not suffering from a factional fight.  - Mkini
