PKR leadership must enforce discipline

Party PKR is currently in turmoil.Its members especially the elected representative are flaunting their position as if they had won their seats on their own merit.Some are even courting B.N to pay them a king ransom so they can switch allegiance.The latest now is in Kedah where the Lunas state Assembly person,Mohd Radzhi Salleh has declared he has left the party and is now an independent. Hardly has the simmering rumour that the Pelahburuhan Kelang Assemblyman, Badrul Hisham Abdullah is planning to jump ship we now have another maverick PKR politician flexing his muscle.

When are we going to see some discipline from the PKR leadership.? I blame all this insurbordination on the inabilty of the PKR leadership to reign in those loose cnnons who are actually testing the resolve of PKR leadership to discipline them. Sadly, PKR leadership has failed abysmally. They allowed Zulkefli Nordin a free reign to run riot and now they are paying for the price of other State assemblymen to similarly flex their muscle. Without discipline, PKR is a party in disaaray. There is no unity of purpose and every assemblyman seems to exercise their own vision of how the party should pander to their individual whims and fancy.PKR and the other Pakatan members can only expect support from the people if they can have a cohesive coalition that can govern the country better than what the B.N can do. Otherwise maybe it would be better for the people to put our faith in some other party that can provide a better alternative.
