DAP did not contest Bemban because the winning chance was slim, says Loke
The DAP Secretary-General said the party was in third place in Bemban in the 2021 state elections, but was in second place in other constituencies it failed to win.
DAP will focus its efforts on seven seats in the upcoming Melaka state election, including four seats it currently holds. The party will not contest the Bemban seat, which it lost in the 2021 election, as its chances of winning were deemed slim. According to DAP Secretary-General Loke Siew Fook, the party wants to concentrate its resources on winnable seats.
The decision not to contest Bemban was a technical and strategic one, he added. Loke also addressed concerns over seat allocation, saying differences in opinion within the party are normal.
