Factional friction over PKR deputy president Azmin Ali losing his invitation to officiate the party’s Youth wing congress continues, with its Sarawak chapter now threatening to cancel its convention unless the situation is resolved.

In a strongly-worded statement today, the state leadership led by chief Baru Bian decried the snub as a violation of party tradition and an attack on democratic principles.

Traditionally, the PKR deputy president officiates PKR Youth’s annual delegates congress.
