KUCHING: Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) does not agree with its former deputy information chief Tedwin Ngumbang that the party was being bullied by Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.
In an SMS to The Borneo Post, PRS president Dato Sri Dr James Masing said: “PRS does not agree with Tedwin’s point of view, so we advised him to resign. He did.”
Masing, who was commenting on Tedwin’s claim made to the media on Monday, however, did not say when Tedwin resigned from the party that he had helped form in 2004.
On Monday, it was reported that the former deputy information chief had resigned from the party because he wanted to serve Sarawak National Party (SNAP).
An insider was quoted as saying Tedwin had exhausted all his usefulness in PRS, and that prompted him to leave the party despite the claim that he was still in good term with Masing.
