Chow Kon Yeow, the chairman of Penang's Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition and state Chief Minister, announced that the decision to maintain cooperation with Barisan Nasional (BN) was made by consensus at a meeting of the PH Leadership Council. This consensus reflected the collective position of all PH component parties, including DAP, and was not made unilaterally.
The meeting saw each party's chairmen present their views on maintaining the PH-BN cooperation, which involved only one Executive Committee (EXCO) position. Chow emphasized that the decision was endorsed by the Penang PH Leadership Council and that there were no issues surrounding it, as it represented the respective positions of the component parties.
When questioned about a statement from DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng, who suggested another internal meeting of DAP Penang delegates to discuss the cooperation, Chow confirmed that he was not part of the DAP Penang committee, but its chairman Steven Sim conveyed the party's unified position at the PH meeting.
