Ex-Melaka DAP chairman, veteran trade unionist to campaign for Bersama

Former Melaka DAP chairman Goh Leong San and veteran trade unionist Gopal Kishnam are set to campaign for Bersama in the upcoming Melaka election. Bersama leader Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli revealed that the addition of these two prominent individuals would be a significant part of the party's efforts. Goh, who held the position of DAP chairman from 2005 to 2015, will join Bersama's campaign program in Kesidang on Saturday, November 7, at Padang Taman Asean near the Xi Ling Gong Temple.

Goh is a former four-term DAP assemblyman who represented various constituencies in Melaka over more than two decades, serving from 1995 to 2018. Rafizi also announced that Gopal, a veteran trade unionist and secretary-general of NUTEAIW, would be involved in Bersama's election campaign. Gopal, currently the pro-tem secretary-general of the Malaysian Federation of Trade Unions (MFTU) and a former secretary-general of MTUC, officially joined Bersama last month, though the specifics of his involvement in the Melaka election campaign have yet to be finalized.
