MP for Batu Gajah, Fong Po Kuan, co-ordinating secretary convening the inaugural meeting of the “Free MP Teresa Kok” parliamentary caucus in Parliament tomorrow (Wednesday 17.9.08) at 3 p.m. has informed me that Datuk Zaid Ibrahim will attend.
I phoned up Zaid from Kota Kinabalu where I am attending a Sabah DAP forum “Malaysia - Towards a New Era” and the first Minister in the nation’s history to have resigned from the Cabinet on a point of principle confirmed his concern for the incarceration of MP Teresa Kok under the Internal Security Act (ISA) and that he would attend the meeting of the proposed “Free MP Teresa Kok” parliamentary caucus.
The report from Malaysiakini also gave us some clues:
Zaid indicated he could join the opposition PKR, which political observers say could form a new government if the ruling coalition continues to defy calls for reform.
"I have an open mind and am not in a hurry to make a decision," he said.
Looks like he is taking another step towards joining the Pakatan Rakyat!

Dear Datuk Zaid, unlike your party colleagues, you have gone back to basics. Basics are: principles, goodness, morality and differentiating right from wrong.
It is commendable action.
