PKR no longer listed as Liberal International observer member


KUALA LUMPUR: The PKR logo has been removed from the Liberal International website after the party asked to be removed from its list of observer members.

A check by The Star showed the only Malaysian connection to the organisation is Gerakan, whose party logo appears in its list of observer members.

PKR information chief Fahmi Fadzil on Friday (Nov 3) said he contacted Liberal International to remove the party's name and logo from its website.
