Raub and Lipis Bersatu divisions dissolve over leadership woes

Another crack just split through Bersatu, and whole division committees are folding because faith in the top brass has basically evaporated.

Raub division pulls the plug

• Datuk Fakrunizam Ibrahim confirmed the Raub committee shut itself down.
• Raub Bersatu leaders cited lost trust in party leadership.
• That entire local lineup dissolved effective yesterday.
• Contact with Bernama carried Fakrunizam’s blunt explanation.

Lipis's division follows suit

• Nor Alias Ibrahim steered Lipis Bersatu toward the same exit.
• A special meeting ended with unanimous backing for dissolution.
• Disappointment with Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin drove the move.
• Ongoing internal turmoil was described as dragging on for nearly a year.

Expulsions and wider fallout

• Seventeen members were kicked out for breaching the party constitution.
• Among them were senior figures, four MPs, and two assemblymen.
• Those expelled can still submit appeals within 14 days.
• Reports claim 22 divisions nationwide have already disbanded.
