Kota Kinabalu: The two Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) Members of Parliament said they will continue to speak up on behalf of the Sabah people even though the party is no longer in Barisan Nasional (BN).
Tawau MP Datuk Dr Chua Soon Bui said her decision to support SAPP's decision to leave the BN on Wednesday was based on the response she received from her constituency.
"They begged me for a change; it is the voice of the people.
"So we will continue to play our duties and listen to their needs," she told reporters after attending the party's supreme council meeting.
On the possibility that she might be urged to resign, Dr Chua said, "I'm an elected representative and I will serve my term."
Meanwhile, Sepanggar MP Datuk Eric Enchin Majimbun said there had to be changes for the party and the people.
"We have been in the BN but whenever we speak up, it was as if they didn't hear us," he said when asked whether SAPP could play a better role had it remained in the coalition.
On whether he had received any offer to join the Pakatan Rakyat, Majimbun said even if he had, he would not take it because it had nothing to do with the real reason for the party's pullout from BN.
