  "account": "DAP's Deputy President in Negeri Sembilan, Loke Siew Fook, has urged party members to continue providing assistance to the community even without official positions. Speaking at the party's convention in Seremban, Loke emphasized that former local assemblymen and Community Management Committee (MPKK) members should still help those who receive support from them. He stressed that just because they are no longer part of the state or local government, they should not stop helping the people who still benefit from their assistance. Loke also encouraged the state's MP and DAP assemblyman to support the root leader in providing assistance to the community. Despite the party having fewer state seats now than in the 2023 PRN, Loke highlighted their ten-year history of support and their ability to adapt during previous decades when they were in opposition. He also mentioned his intention to step down from his state party leadership position in the coming year, making way for new leaders while still focusing on national party leadership. Loke reflected on the party's growth in Negeri Sembilan over the past 22 years, from winning only two state seats in 2004 to achieving parliamentary and DUN seats in subsequent elections, before taking over state government in 2018. He expressed pride in having the opportunity to lead the party for 22 years and support the new leadership in handing over responsibilities. Loke urged the party to be prepared for any political uncertainties in the state, as the current Chief Minister, Ismail Lasim, currently has no state assemblymen to assist him. He emphasized that their focus should be on strengthening the party rather than addressing the problems faced by their opponents.",
