PUTRAJAYA — DAP Women's legal bureau chief Sangeet Kaur Deo urged the party to remain in the Unity Government, but cautioned that it has remained quiet for too long on issues within the administration. Deo stated that while the party's ministers had a strong reform record, deeper problems could not be ignored. She pointed to increasing racial division under the DAP government, as well as a failure to address corruption despite the party's pledges.
Deo criticized the party's ties with Umno and called for a reassessment of its relationship with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. She questioned why the party is staying silent, asking if it was willing to address the issues. Deo emphasized that DAP needed to rebuild credibility and speak up while still in power, even if that meant returning to opposition status.
