INTERVIEW Months after his seemingly sudden departure from Malay rights pressure group Perkasa, the perception lingers that former Youth chief Arman Azha Abu Hanifah had quit because of disputes surrounding the NGO's funds.

"I swear to God, throughout the time I was in Perkasa I only received RM1,700," he said in an interview.
