Johor's Pakatan Harapan (PH) party has agreed to elect Chen Kah Eng, the Stulang Adun, as the leader of the opposition, or the balancing figure, in the state. Teo Nie Ching, the chairperson of DAP Johor, confirmed that the decision was reached among the three PH component parties - DAP, PKR, and Amanah. The DAP had proposed Chen for the position and their proposal was accepted by PKR and Amanah representatives, according to a statement to the press after the Community Carnival Internet Campaign in Putra City yesterday.
Chen had previously held the same position from 2022 to 2026 during the previous state government term. During the PRN Johor held on July 11th last year, the Barisan Nasional successfully formed a new state government after winning 48 seats, while PH won eight seats.
