[superadmin]

KOTA TINGGI, Feb 26 — A group of 30 women led by Rosnah Suliman from Felda Sungai Sibol joined PKR today, boosting the Opposition party’s morale as the Johor election campaign officially started.

Rosnah brought with her 29 others, claiming they were previously with the ruling Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) and now wanted to help the Tenggara PKR division campaign for the Pasir Raja state constituency in the March 12 vote.

However, she did not share the reason they left Bersatu, saying she preferred to “let what happened there, stay there”.

“Personally, what I hope for is something different, a place which provides opportunities for women to work,” she said in a press conference at the Pasir Raja PKR operations centre.
