‘Stop BN for gaining two-thirds in the House’
“All BN needs is four more seats to get their desired two-third majorities.
I appeal to Sibu voters not to allow this. Give us another MP and help increase our representation in parliament.
“We must not give them (BN) this seat…so please vote for a principled politician and not for commercial politics.

SIBU: Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has appealed to Sibu voters to help reinforce Pakatan Rakyat’s strength in parliament following the loss of yet another PKR MP.
Yesterday PKR’s Wangsa Maju MP Wee Choo Keong announced his resignation from the party, citing his frustration over the little Napoleons in the PKR. He has declared himself an independent.
Lim said with Wee’s departure, Barisan Nasional was now getting closer in its obsessive pursuit of the two-thirds majority.
“All BN needs is four more seats to get their desired two-third majorities.
I appeal to Sibu voters not to allow this. Give us another MP and help increase our representation in parliament.
“We must not give them (BN) this seat…so please vote for a principled politician and not for commercial politics.
“Vote for DAP candidate Wong Ho Leng,” he told an enthusiastic 3,000 strong crowd in Rejang Park last night.
Wee became the latest PKR member to defect from the party although it has been speculated for months that he will be leaving.
During the height of the Hulu Selangor by-election campaign,neurosurgeon-cum division treasurer Halili Rahmat quit the party after he was not offered to contest in the seat.
Before that Kedah assemblyman Tan Wei Shu resigned.
Last August Lunas state assemblyman Mohammad Radzhi Salleh quit PKR to become an independent.
