Saturday, 23 May 2026 1:41 PM MYT SEMPORNA, May 23 — Semporna PKR chief Mohd Amin Abdul Mem has resigned from all party posts and quit PKR after 27 years, citing a shift away from the party’s original reformist principles.A former teacher who became politically active following the 1998 arrest of Anwar Ibrahim, he said the party had changed due to power-sharing dynamics within the Unity Government and internal leadership shifts.“PKR today has slightly changed its rhythm. From being brave, firm, honest and principled, it has moved towards compromise, politicking and selectivity,” he said.He also pointed to internal tensions and the exit of Rafizi Ramli’s faction as signs of deepening issues, while describing the emergence of Parti Bersama Malaysia as a continuation of reformist ideals in a new form.Mohd Amin expressed gratitude to party leaders and grassroots members before formally announcing his resignation and departure from PKR.
