However,like the six Members of Parliament (MPs) who declared support for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim at the federal level,he pledged loyalty to BERSATU and remained its member although supporting Amirudin and his state government. He added that the royal address by Sultan Sharafuddin praising the performance of Amirudin and his state government,the silence of BERSATU on the criticisms and allegations against the Sultan as well as the wellbeing of Selat Kelang were among his reasons of doing so.
