PETALING JAYA: Bersatu vice-president Ronald Kiandee has been dropped as the party’s representative in the Perikatan Nasional Supreme Council. Kiandee, who is aligned with now-former Bersatu deputy president Hamzah Zainudin, has been replaced by fellow party vice-president Radzi Jidin, who previously resigned as PN information chief. Kiandee confirmed the matter when contacted by FMT. The decision is said to have been made by the Bersatu Supreme Council when it convened on Feb 14, a day after Hamzah and several other leaders aligned with him were expelled from the party.
