People's Progressive Party (PPP) president M Kayveas said the party which has been mired in internal bickering is reuniting for the next general election.

"Members who are confused by the leadership crisis have started to become united again after being briefed on the real situation," he told reporters at a Melaka PPP Chinese New Year open house here today.

Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department T Murugiah

declared himself president after an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) in Putrajaya on May 24 last year.

The supreme council member was then sacked by PPP.

Kayveas said strong unity within the party would paint a good picture and attract support from the people.

He added it was too early to talk about seat allocation and urged Melaka PPP to strive harder to strengthen the party. - Bernama
