陆兆福最初于9月宣布辞职,以抗议给予纳吉布·拉扎克有条件王室特赦,但在总理安瓦尔·易卜拉欣的要求下临时留任。
Anthony Loke first announced his resignation in September to protest the conditional royal pardon granted to Najib Razak, but stayed on temporarily at Prime Minister's Anwar Ibrahim's request.
吉隆坡:民主行动党主席陆兆福于周二(11月10日)表示,在吉隆坡高等法院裁定允许前总理纳吉布·拉扎克以居家监禁方式服刑后,他将辞去马来西亚交通部长职务,“即刻生效”。
KUALA LUMPUR: Democratic Action Party (DAP) chief Anthony Loke said on Tuesday (Nov 10) that he will resign as Malaysia's transport minister "effective immediately", following the Kuala Lumpur High Court’s decision to allow former prime minister Najib Razak to serve his sentence under house arrest.
陆兆福表示,此举符合他上周五宣布的立场,即他将在纳吉布开始居家监禁时卸任。
Loke said the move was in line with the stance he announced last Friday that he will step down when Najib begins his house arrest.
他在一份声明中说:“这一决定坚守了我先前阐明的原则和立场。”
“This decision upholds the principles and stance that I have previously explained,” he said in a statement.

他随后表示,总理安瓦尔·易卜拉欣曾要求他临时留任,并且他将担任交通部长直到纳吉布开始居家监禁。
He later said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim had asked him to remain in his post temporarily, and that he would remain as transport minister until Najib began his house arrest.
陆兆福所在的民主行动党是安瓦尔的人民公正党所在的执政联盟希望联盟的成员。他此前曾表示,其辞职是一项党内决定,旨在传达该党对有条件王室特赦的不同意。
Loke – whose DAP is part of the governing Pakatan Harapan coalition with Anwar’s Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) – had previously said his resignation was a party decision to convey its disagreement with the conditional royal pardon.
