PETALING JAYA:

Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail has resigned as Permatang Pauh Member of Parliament to make way for her husband Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to contest in a by-election.

At a packed press conference at the party headquarters on Thursday, Dr Wan Azizah said the decision was made after deliberations with her family, the PKR leadership and its partners in the Pakatan Rakyat loose coalition of Opposition parties.

"I have officially submitted my resignation as MP to the Parliament Speaker, Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia, to make way for my husband, Anwar Ibrahim, to contest as a candidate for Pakatan Rakyat in a by-election as soon as possible," she said.

Interesting as well as troubling news.

Interesting because it may determine the landscape of Malaysia political scene.
Interesting because it may determine what Pak "Sleepy" Lah has up his sleeve to handle the resurgence Anwar.
Interesting because it may determine what Musang Hasan and Guni Patail would be doing to Anwar to suck up to his political master.
Interesting because Najis is trembling with fear in anticipation of backlash from the incoming PM.
Troubling because more troubles are in store for ordinary Malaysians.
Troubling because more street demos are to be expected.
Troubling because the lifes of we Malaysians would not change, irregardless of who runs the country.
