PETALING JAYA, Oct 2 — Lee Chean Chung has announced his immediate resignation as the member of parliament for Petaling Jaya, saying he refuses to draw a lawmaker's salary while being sidelined.
Speaking at a press conference here today, Lee said his decision followed a formal suspension notice he received from PKR on September 30.
“Should I continue accepting a salary as a member of parliament while simply sitting silently like a stump? No.
“Therefore, I, Lee Chean Chung, have today decided to resign unconditionally as the Member of Parliament for Petaling Jaya,” he said.
