Penang PH-BN cooperation based on consensus, including DAP, says Chow
BUTTERWORTH: The decision to maintain cooperation between Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional in Penang was made through a consensus among all component parties, including DAP, says Penang PH chairman Chow Kon Yeow.
BUTTERWORTH: Penang PH Chairman Chow Kon Yeow revealed that the decision to continue the cooperation between Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional was made through consensus among all component parties, including DAP. According to Chow, there were no concerns about the decision as it reflected the stance of each party and was approved by the Penang PH Leadership Council.
The PH Leadership Council, where Chow served as chair, consisted of the state chairs of Amanah, PKR, and DAP, who shared their positions following their respective party meetings. The consensus among all parties resulted in retaining the PH-BN cooperation in Penang, which includes only one executive councillor. Chow also addressed DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng's suggestion to convene another internal meeting of Penang DAP delegates to assess their stance on the state PH leadership's unreserved support for Umno's role in the state government.
He mentioned that Penang DAP chairman Steven Sim had presented the party's stance during the state PH meeting, which aligned with the positions of state Amanah chairman Muhammad Faiz Fadzil and PKR State Leadership Council chairman Datuk Dr Mohamad Abdul Hamid.
