Since the early days of the establishment of PKR, activist and lawyer Fadhlina Siddiq watched from the sidelines, observing what was going on within the party. It took the betrayal of party members in the Sheraton Move to convince Fadhlina that it was time for her to become a party member.

At the time, Fadhlina had undeniably close ties with PKR through her late father, former Malaysian Islamic Youth Movement (Abim) president Siddiq Fadzil - a known close confidante of PKR president Anwar Ibrahim.
