Wah....good gesture but why ask Dato Lee to leave Gerakan earlier?

Is it politcally motivated? Why has a good man like Dato Lee Kah Choon got to leave the party for taking up positions within the state government? Take it from me, Gerakan Penang - suggest you join Pakatan Rakyat. After all, you asked Dato Lee to leave before didn't you? Why wait till BN boots you out?
