Adam Adli reminds AMK Congress delegates to highlight motions that benefit party, govt
JOHOR BARU: Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) chief Adam Adli Abdul Halim has reminded the 2024/2025 AMK National Congress delegates to highlight motions that will contribute to the formation of party and government policies during the debate session.
He said the motions presented should be based on real issues and should not be limited solely to the internal scope of the party.
Adam Adli said this at a press conference after delivering his keynote address at the congress, which is themed "Membangun Madani, Menuju Reformasi", here today.
On concerns about potential internal division within the PKR following the new leadership election, Adam Adli, who is also the deputy youth and sports minister, said that based on previous election experience, he is confident that such a situation will not occur.
"What is most important is how, after the contest, we close ranks.
"The PKR elections are open and that's why they are often seen as heated, but I can give an assurance that everyone who is contesting is extremely loyal to the party's struggles," he said.
The three-day 2024/2025 PKR National Congress began yesterday with the simultaneous opening of the AMK and Wanita wings, to be followed by a keynote speech and the official opening of the congress by party president and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim tonight.
The congress also features the party's leadership election for the 2025-2028 term, covering the Central Leadership Council (MPP), Central AMK Leadership Council, and Central Women's Leadership Council, which is held from 8am to 5pm.
A total of 251 candidates are contesting in the election, comprising 104 nominations for the MPP, 85 candidates for the AMK Leadership Council and 62 for the Women's Leadership Council.

Amirudin denies vacating Sungai Tua state seat, amid claim of by-election for Tengku Zafrul to become Selangor MB
SHAH ALAM, June 3 — Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) vice president Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari today denied that the Sungai Tua state seat he won in the 2023 state election would be vacated. Describing the claim as imaginary and baseless, the Selangor Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman said that vacating a seat to make way for an individual is not as easy as one might think. 'It's not that simple, it requires some research,' he said when met at the E-Bike Handover Ceremony to Selangor police at Selangor police contingent headquarters, here today. Amirudin, who is also the Selangor Menteri Besar, said this in response to the claim that the Sungai Tua state seat would be vacated to allow for a by-election to be held, as well as to make way for Trade, Investment and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz to contest. Last Friday, Tengku Zafrul announced his resignation from UMNO and his intention to join PKR. — Bernama * Editor's note: An earlier version erroneously spelt Sungai Tua as Sungai Tea in the headline and has since been corrected.

PM immunity: High Court to rule on legal questions referral tomorrow
KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has set Wednesday (June 4) for its decision on an application by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to refer eight legal questions to the Federal Court, including whether a Prime Minister enjoys immunity from lawsuits. The legal questions relate to a lawsuit filed by Anwar's former research assistant, Muhammed Yusoff Rawther, concerning an alleged sexual assault seven years ago. Judge Roz Mawar Rozain fixed the date on Tuesday (June 3) after hearing submissions from lawyer Alan Wong Teck Wei, representing Anwar, and lawyer Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali, acting for Yusoff, during in-chamber proceedings. Anwar filed the application on May 23, seeking to have the High Court, which is hearing the suit, refer the eight legal questions to the Federal Court. The eight legal questions include whether, under Articles 39, 40 and 43 of the Federal Constitution, a sitting Prime Minister enjoys limited immunity from lawsuits concerning allegations of personal conduct that occurred before his appointment. According to a supporting affidavit for the application, lawyer Datuk Megat Abdul Munir Megat Abdullah Rafaie, who is authorised to represent the defendant (Anwar), said that if the suit were to proceed, it would affect Anwar's ability to effectively perform his executive functions and undermine the doctrine of separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution. "The plaintiff's (Yusoff's) claim is politically motivated and, if not examined constitutionally at an early stage, could erode public confidence, diminish the dignity of the constitutional office, and disrupt the executive's ability to perform its constitutional duties," Megat Abdul Munir said in the affidavit. Megat Abdul Munir further stated that if the court intends to refer these constitutional questions to the Federal Court as a special case, it would be appropriate for the suit's proceedings to be stayed pending the Federal Court's determination of these questions. Yusoff filed the suit on July 14, 2021, and Anwar, in his statement of defence, contended that Yusoff had lied under oath to the authorities regarding the alleged sexual assault incident. The PKR president, who filed a counterclaim on Sept 28, 2021, alleged that Yusoff had fabricated the story about the sexual assault to tarnish his political career and prevent him from becoming prime minister. The High Court last year set June 16 to 19 and June 23 to 25, 2025, for the hearing of the lawsuit.- Bernama
