PKR -Defeat in Perak?

What can I say? How come you find some people would just leave the party to become an independent candidate and still a Member of the Parliament? I don't understand. Oh well, even though there were people leaving the ruling party in Perak, it does not mean that PKR is in rocky ground. I think it has to do with many factors. The political situation of PKR in Perak is rather rocky.

Firstly, it might be MPs were under the influence of their own party member - Not happy with the party;

Secondly, being asked to leave the party due to some disagreement within the party itself?; and

Thirdly, it might be due to external forces - Influence by opposition party - monies given to lure them into the opposition party, perhaps? Greed?

Oh well, when you have money, it will drive people over the bench...
