DAP's Ting disqualified as Pujut assemblyperson
  • 4 years ago
DAP's Dr Ting Tion Choon has been disqualified as the Pujut assemblyperson.

This is after the Federal Court held that the Sarawak state assembly had not erred in its decision to disqualify him as an assemblyperson.

The Sarawak state assembly had on May 12, 2017, disqualified Ting based on the fact that he has had dual citizenship even though he later renounced his Australian citizenship just before the 2016 Sarawak election.
