KUALA LUMPUR:
Johor Bahru Bersatu said its women’s wing has not been disbanded and is running as usual to serve the community and the party.

Its chief, Abdull Bakar Ali, said he was aware of the resignation of some members of the division’s Srikandi committee on June 20.

However, he said that according to the party’s constitution, the Srikandi Johor Bahru division was still relevant and did not need to be dissolved.

“The current focus of the Johor Bahru division is to combat the Covid-19 pandemic along with the Perikatan Nasional government,” he said in a statement last night.

Yesterday, it was reported that Bersatu Srikandi Johor Bahru division permanent chairman Masazlina Bachok, her deputy, Khairunnisah Ali, and six leaders announced their resignation effective June 20.

Abdull Bakar said several Srikandi leaders who still wanted to be with the party had retracted their resignation letters.
