Murugiah insists he is PPP president
By MANJIT KAUR
PENANG: Datuk T. Murugiah still insists that he is the rightful PPP president despite the Registrar of Societies (ROS) not reaching a decision over the matter yet.
“I am very confident that I will lead the party and I am here (in Penang) in my capacity as the party president to meet the branch members,” he told reporter yesterday after meeting 22 division chiefs.
“Two thirds of the members have already chosen me to be their president. This is a membership drive.”
Murugiah, who is also deputy minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, said he has learned that the ROS investigation was already completed and an announcement would be made very soon.
The party's internal conflict began when youth chief Murugiah, was sacked from the party.
He was declared party president during an emergency general meeting called by his supporters on May 24.
Party president Datuk M. Kayveas won the top post unopposed when party's nomination closed on May 30.
