INTRODUCTION

Parti Gerakan Rakyat Malaysia was founded in 1968. Since then, we have been growing from strength to strength despite external constraints and internal problems. Through sincere leadership, pragmatic strategies and non-communal approaches, we have been successful in obtaining mass support to strive for an egalitarian united Malaysia characterized by racial harmony, social justice, economic equality, political democracy and cultural liberalism. As a relatively young party, we’ have encountered moments of triumph and anguish in our struggle.

We have been complimented as well as criticized. But all the same, we have never faltered in our faith. Our honesty, integrity and ability have again and again been proven through deeds and words, both inside and outside the government sphere. Our receptivity to people’s criticism and advice, and our sensitivity to their needs and aspirations are the two major elements that make the party a dynamic and resilient political force in the national arena.
