DAP should stay in govt, but reassess ties with Anwar, says delegate

DAP party delegate Sangeet Kaur Deo stated that the party should continue to be part of the unity government, but suggested they reevaluate their relationship with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Speaking at DAP's special congress in Putrajaya, Deo argued that the party must first rebuild trust and confidence before staying in the federal government "for now."

She acknowledged the reforms undertaken by their ministers, but also pointed out that significant issues still remain unresolved. Deo highlighted multiple corruption scandals that have escalated during DAP's time in power, questioning whether these issues have been adequately addressed. She further criticized Umno for openly attacking DAP, claiming that Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had secured his DNAA on 47 charges.

Deo questioned the coalition partners' viability, asking the central executive committee to seriously reassess their relationship with Anwar.
