KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 10 — Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Federal Territories) Hannah Yeoh said she should have resigned from the Cabinet today, but DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke wanted the party’s ministers to remain in government to fulfil their promises to the people.

“I should have stepped down today, but my Secretary-General wants us to fulfill all our promises to the people and complete the unfinished work. In the end, he paid the price himself,” she said in a Facebook post today.

Her remarks came after Loke announced his resignation as transport minister with immediate effect, following the Kuala Lumpur High Court’s decision allowing former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his SRC International prison sentence under house arrest.

DAP had decided that its other ministers and deputy ministers would remain in government to maintain political stability and complete outstanding commitments.
