Meet Penang DAP over move to retain BN in state govt, Chow told
DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng says the Penang CM should not assume that delegates endorsed the decision simply because the matter was not raised at the meeting on Wednesday.
Penang DAP leader Lim Guan Eng has called on Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow to hold a meeting with Penang DAP to discuss retaining Umno in the state government, following tensions between Umno and DAP at the federal level. Lim, a DAP adviser, emphasized that the recent meeting of delegates from Penang, Kedah and Perlis focused solely on whether the party should remain in the federal government, and not on Umno's role in the state government.
He urged Chow to call a separate meeting to gauge the sentiments of state party leaders, as the recent decision to retain BN's sole executive councillor Rashidi Zinol in the state administration has been criticized as an unconditional endorsement of Umno's role in the state government.
