PRM 45th National Congress






Party Rakyat Malaysia (PRM) has recently held its 45th National Congress at the Kuala Lumpur-Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall (KLSCAH) on 17th November 2013.

The congress was officiated by party president Dr Rohana Ariffin who later presented her policy speech to the delegates, invited guests, fraternal parties and the press. In her policy speech, Dr Rohana had stressed on the need to have a proportional voting system instead of the first-past-the-post-system which had given advantage to only bigger and stronger political parties to dominate the political scene.

Apart from that, our party president also touched on the importance of the youth movement, the international politics and urge party delegates and members to continue their struggle against capitalism.

Also invited to the congress were Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) chairman, Dr Nasir Hashim, PSM secretary-general S.Arutchelvan, ABU chairman, Haris Ibrahim and other members of the Socialist groups.

After the opening of the congress, party secretary-general Al--Jafree Yusop later tabled the party's annual report and the minutes of the previous year's national congress, followed by party's financial report, debates on the party president's policy speech and discussion on resolutions forwarded by the delegates.
