GEORGE TOWN – Wanita DAP has pledged its support for PKR’s Indera Kayangan assemblyman Gan Ay Ling who is the sole Pakatan Harapan (PH) representative in the 15-member state legislative assembly in Perlis.

Its chairman Chong Eng, a veteran women activist, said DAP is worried that Gan may be “bullied” in Perlis because she is the sole opposition member, a female, and the only elected representative of Chinese origin.

“There is nothing sinister here. We are just worried about whether Gan can find the necessary support. Perikatan Nasional (PN) won Perlis on the back of a controversial and aggressive campaign to woo the Malay sentiments. In the past, politicians shunned such aggressive stances but now, there is without a doubt a rise of right-leaning politics.”
