Miri representative Dr Michael Teo.
KUCHING: Following the resignation of state chairman Larry Sng, Sarawak PKR is expected to leave the position vacant until after the 12th state election to avoid any attempts by political rivals to woo its top leadership.

Socio-political analyst Awang Azman Awang Pawi of Universiti Malaya said the party will be in no hurry to appoint a new chairman to replace the Julau MP, who confirmed his resignation on Sunday to back Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

“It is unlikely that the party will announce a new chairman anytime soon as the state leadership committee can lead the party even during elections,” Awang Azman told FMT.

He said Sng’s resignation was not something unexpected and it was time for PKR to “cleanse” the party.
