The Chief Minister confirmed that Wong had made an appointment to meet him"in the next few days" on resigning his ministerial posts."Being an experienced politician, he has his own reasons," Abang Johari told reporters on Tuesday when asked if he would let Wong stay on for a while before stepping down.
Wong also said he had no"moral locus standi" to remain in the state Cabinet after PSB was sidelined in the new list of councillors drawn up for local authorities.
