PKMS faction goes online
By Cai Haoxiang
THEY failed to gain control of the party premises in Eunos last week. So the faction claiming to be the rightful leaders of the opposition Singapore Malay National Organisation (PKMS) has now moved to establish a presence online.
The group set up an e-mail account and said on Wednesday it would use it as a way to serve the community.
'We can still function, regardless of whether we can operate from a building or not,' Madam Lella Mardiiiah Mohamed, 35, a member of the group, told reporters at a press conference at Hong Lim Park.
With the account, the group will be able to respond to queries and provide the Malay community with advice on family and education matters, and help the unemployed search for jobs online, she said. Madam Lella is deputy president of the group which last week tried to change the locks at the PKMS office building in Eunos.
Their attempt on Sept 3 sparked clashes with members of the group that has control of the premises. The incident led to the arrest of 21 people for rioting. Four men were also taken to hospital with injuries.
One of the injured, Mr Ramlan Mohamad, 49, was warded in intensive care with a fractured skull. He is now out of intensive care, said his twin brother Ramli Mohamad.
Both brothers, along with Madam Lella, are part of a breakaway group that has spent the past two years trying to gain control of the PKMS. Several members of this group had been suspended from the party in 2007 by the PKMS supreme council led by Mr Osman Hassan, 64.
Mr Osman's council does not recognise the breakaway group's claims to be the legitimate leaders of the party. In the wake of the clashes, the council also rebuffed a suggestion by the group represented by Madam Lella that the two sides might reconcile.
On Wednesday, she said that her group did not have the finances to mount a fresh legal challenge against Mr Osman and his council.
But it would, in the meantime, aim to continue to serve the community. Hence the initiative to start the e-mail service, she said, adding that those interested could send their queries to [email protected]
