Khalid sacks all DAP, PKR excos

In a stunning showdown with Pakatan, Selangor Menteri Besar Khalid Ibrahim sacked all DAP and PKR executive counsillors with the issuance of a termination letter to each of them.

The exco members terminated are Datuk Teng Chang Khim, V. Ganabatirau and Ean Yong Hian Wah from DAP and Elizabeth Wong, Dr Daroyah Alwi and Rodziah Ismail from PKR.

Taking immediate effect, Khalid said the decision to terminate the excos was made after they signed and issued a statement that they had formed a bloc, the reason of which was to undermine the effectiveness of the exco.

He said he had no choice but to seek permission from the Sultan in writing to terminate the duties of the current Selangor state exco.

“However, I have not written to Rodziah about her termination as she is currently overseas,” he said.

Khalid also dismissed rumours he was joining PAS saying, “No, the rumours about me joing PAS are absolutely false.”

With the termination of all six excos from DAP and PKR, the Pakatan Rakyat government has effectively collapsed with only Khalid as an Independent and four PAS members. -FMT
