  "summary": "Penang Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Chow Kon Yeow has clarified that DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng's call for Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to urge Penang PH to drop Umno from the state government does not represent the party's official stance. Kon Yeow stated that there have been no official directives from the party on the matter, and all parties should await a decision by the PH Presidential Council. He emphasized that statements issued by individuals do not reflect the party's official position and urged party leaders to abide by decisions made by the top leadership.",
