KUCHING: About 50 members of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Batu Kawa branch are to jump ship to join the People’s Progressive Party.

According to a source, who is among those who have decided to join PPP, many of the party members are disillusioned with the party branch leaders.

“The leaders do not seem to know their limit for politicking … almost every issue is being politicised by
them which is not good for the party,” said the source.

The source added he and few PBB members would seek a meeting with the PPP state chairman John Lau to discuss their intention of joining the party.

“If PPP wants us to resign from PBB first before joining them, we are willing to do so,” said the source.
