Fuziah: No suspension for PKR MPs who called for RCI into judicial appointments
SEREMBAN: No disciplinary action will be taken against the nine PKR members of Parliament who criticised judicial appointments and called for a Royal Commission of Inquiry, PKR secretary-general Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh said. According to Fuziah, party president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim told Negri Sembilan PKR grassroots today that there's no issue of suspension, as the MPs were merely voicing concerns related to the people. "He clarified that these MPs have a right to raise such matters. While criticism should ideally be discussed internally first, it is not grounds for suspension," she said after the event here. Fuziah was speaking after Anwar spent nearly an hour behind closed doors with Negri Sembilan PKR division heads during his Presidential Tour and Party Organisation Strengthening Seminar held at a hotel here. The meeting, attended by some 1,000 party members, also included PKR vice-presidents Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun, Chang Lih Kang and Datuk Seri R. Ramanan, as well as Fuziah, women's wing chief Fadhlina Sidek and youth wing chief Muhammad Kamil Munim. Fuziah said the tour is part of a nationwide effort to rebuild unity among grassroots leaders, including those who lost in the party's recent internal polls. "We're not fighting enemies, just having differences among siblings. Unity is key if we want to move forward," she said. Calls had previously emerged from within PKR for action to be taken against Pandan MP Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli and eight other MPs over their criticism of appointments in the judiciary.

Avoid ‘Turun Anwar' rally, civil servants told
The first 'Turun Anwar' rally held in Shah Alam on July 6 attracted about 300 participants, but the organisers say they expect as many as 300,000 to attend Saturday's event. PETALING JAYA : Civil servants have been told to avoid the 'Turun Anwar' rally in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday. Chief secretary to the government Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar said it was inappropriate for civil servants to take part in the rally 'because the action is not in accordance with the principle of loyalty to king and country as espoused by the Rukun Negara'. 'They are civil servants, how can they (be part of the rally?) Every day, every week, we recite the pledge (of) loyalty to king and country,' Bernama quoted him as telling reporters after launching a sports carnival in Putrajaya today. Perikatan Nasional has planned the rally at Dataran Merdeka to push for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's resignation. The organisers expect up to 300,000 participants, although a similar protest in Shah Alam earlier this month drew just over 300. Police were reported as saying, however, that they expect between 10,000 and 15,000 people to join the rally. Acting Kuala Lumpur police chief Usuf Jan Mohamad said more than 2,000 officers and personnel will be deployed to facilitate the rally and ensure the safety of all involved.
