PETALING JAYA: Aug 12, 2008 By ELIZABETH LOOI
Two former leaders of the Bandar Tun Razak Umno division led 148 members to cross over to PKR.
Norasida Silam, who was the deputy chairman of the division, and Azmi Hassan, a former deputy chairman, handed over application forms to Bandar Tun Razak MP Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim, who is also Selangor Mentri Besar, at the division's PKR office on Monday.
“Norasida wanted to join us because he said he could no longer tolerate the non-existence of democracy practice in Umno, for instance the quota system for party elections,” said Bandar Tun Razak PKR deputy chief Othman Karim.
“He said ... he prefers to work for the people, not only for the Malays,” said Othman.
