Gobind says DAP must chase reforms Unity partners can deliver, not manifesto wish‑lists

DAP must focus on implementing reforms that can garner consensus from coalition partners, rather than pursuing its entire manifesto as part of the Unity Government, according to its national chairman Gobind Singh Deo. Deo made this assertion during the DAP Party Conference 2026 held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre.
The chairman's remarks came in light of the recent state elections and the three and a half years that DAP has spent in the Unity Government. Gobind emphasized that the party must accept the people's choice while also reevaluating its future direction. He further proposed convening a special Parliament session to deliberate and approve amendments to crucial laws, including the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012, the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012, and limiting the Prime Minister's tenure to two terms.
Gobind also highlighted the need for the government to comprehend the challenges faced by the people and take measures to alleviate their burdens, all while maintaining political stability to attract foreign investment and generate job opportunities.
