Numpang said he joined PKR because he had so much faith in PKR applying the principles of truth and justice on which it was founded.
“Instead, I see that the party had deviated from those principles and is now focused on the personal interest and ambition of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and certain other individuals.
“PKR’s overriding objective was to propel to the office of prime minister, such that they are blinded by their personal ambitions and willing to let the party split,” Numpang said in a statement.
“As a result the party fell from its position of being the most powerful party to one of a mere bystander.

“I had so much hope that the election result on May 9, 2018 becoming the turning point on the path of true democracy and justice for the nation.
“But now I am bitterly disappointed and disgusted that all that hope is trampled by the personal ambitions of PKR’s president and certain individuals in the party,” he said.
Numpang said the split in PKR enabled the formation of a back-door government made up of the very same parties that led this nation to the despicable gutters of corruption, racism, religious fanaticism and mis-governance.
“At the state level we have seen PKR’s president and certain individuals in the party shown disrespect to the Kuching Declaration 2012 signed by opposition leaders including Anwar himself.
“Sarawak’s autonomy via the Malaysia Agreement (MA63) within the party was never taken seriously, as party matters continued to be decided from Peninsular Malaysia.
“The first time that I knew Baru Bian and See Chee How was in 2010 when they offered their legal services in fighting for our NCR land at Ulu Sebangan.
“And this is one of reasons I joined PKR with them. I did not know it at that time, but the two of them have been helping with hundreds of NCR land cases in the state before that.
“The people of Sarawak knows and are thankful for their services. But now blinded by personal ambitions, PKR leaders see the need to remove them,” Numpang said.
Apart from being the Stakan chief, Numpang was also a member of the State Leadership Council, State Election Committee and the communications chief of Kota Samarahan branch.
In Sri Aman, Nurina Umoi Utot also announced her resignation from PKR with immediate effect.
She was the Sri Aman branch deputy chief.
“I have submitted my official resignation letter to PKR headquarters,” Nurina, who works in an oil and gas industry, said.
Other committee members of Sri Aman branch, including its chairman, have resigned from the party earlier.
Sri Aman branch is now disbanded with the resignations of the branch committee.
