Question

Accepted Answer

Bersatu Adhered to Party Rules in Sacking Sri Gading MP

Bersatu secretary-general Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin confirmed that the party followed its internal regulations when terminating the membership of Sri Gading MP Datuk Shahruddin Md Salleh. This decision was based on Shahruddin's explicit communication to the Dewan Rakyat Speaker indicating his dissociation from the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government bloc.
Verification of MP's Stance

The termination followed a verification process concerning Shahruddin's notice to the Dewan Rakyat Speaker on July 10. This notice stated his intention not to be seated with the Perikatan Nasional government bloc when Parliament convened for its second meeting of the year.
Compliance with Party Procedures

Hamzah Zainudin, who is also the Home Minister, affirmed that the party acted in accordance with its established rules and legal framework. He confirmed issuing a media statement detailing the sacking of the Sri Gading MP, underscoring the procedural adherence.
Prior Resignation and Continued Support

This development occurred after Shahruddin had previously resigned from his position as deputy works minister in the preceding month. At that time, he had indicated his intention to continue supporting the Perikatan Nasional coalition and its leader, Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
