Trouble in pro-independence Sarawak party as ousted founder cries foul

THE embattled president of Parti Aspirasi Rakyat Sarawak (Aspirasi), Lina Soo, who reportedly had been sacked from her position last Sunday, has accused a former member of Parti Sarawak Bersatu (PSB) of orchestrating the coup.

Soo, the founding member of the state rights party seeking Sarawak’s independence via a referendum, told The Malaysian Insight that John Lau Pang Heng is the key figure behind last Sunday’s coup.
