Respect DAP's decision to stay in govt, Chow tells Rafizi
GEORGE TOWN: DAP’s Chow Kon Yeow has told Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) co-founder Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli to respect the party’s decision to remain in the unity government.
GEORGE TOWN: DAP co-founder Chow Kon Yeow has urged Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) co-founder Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli to respect the decision of the DAP to stay in the unity government. This comes after Rafizi's comments suggesting that the DAP was unlikely to depart from Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's administration following a taste of power.
Chow, a DAP central executive committee member and Penang chief minister, made the remarks when commenting on Rafizi's statements at the launch of the Penang Structure Plan 2040. Rafizi had expressed that the party's representation at federal, state, and local government levels made it challenging for them to relinquish their positions.
Earlier today, the DAP's national congress voted in favor of remaining in the government, following recent electoral setbacks in Sabah, Johor, and Negri Sembilan, which have sparked debates about the DAP's continued involvement in the unity government while still backing Anwar.
