When is the appeal deadline for Yong and Voong?

Question

Accepted Answer

The appeal deadline for Yong and Voong is April 15.

The appeal deadline for Datuk Lily Yong Lee Lee and Voong Nam Jing to contest their expulsion from the Sarawak United People's Party (SUPP) is April 15. This date marks the end of the 30-day period allowed for an appeal to the party's Central Working Committee (CWC) following their expulsion. The expulsion letter itself was dated March 16, initiating the timeline for their appeal process.
Expulsion Notification and Timeline

Yong and Voong were officially informed of their expulsion through a letter issued by the CWC. This letter, dated March 16, stated that their removal from the party was effective March 9. The notice clearly outlined that a 30-day window was provided from the date of the letter for them to lodge an appeal.
Legal Process Underway

The sacking of Yong, who held the position of SUPP Kuching chairman, and Voong, the branch secretary, is currently being treated as a matter under a legal process. This designation has led SUPP President Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian to refrain from making direct comments on the situation, citing the ongoing legal proceedings. He indicated that the party's secretary-general would be issuing a formal statement regarding the matter.
Confirmation of Expulsion

The expulsion of the two leaders was confirmed by Nicholas Wung, the SUPP Kuching Youth chief. Wung announced at a press conference on March 26 that the CWC had indeed made the decision to expel Yong and Voong. The details of this decision, including the effective date and the appeal process, were subsequently communicated through the official letter.
