Young Malays can rise in DAP: youth leaders - superadmin - 01-07-2022 KUALA LUMPUR – Despite DAP’s long-standing struggle in gaining support from the Malay electorate, the party’s young leaders from the majority ethnic group say that it has provided them with opportunities to rise up the ranks. While one DAP leader recently called for a revamp of the party’s Chinese image, Syahredzan Johan, the political secretary to party’s veteran Lim Kit Siang, believes that there is no need for a major shift in its direction. “To me, the party is on the right track to becoming a party that is accepted by all Malaysians, including the Malays,” the 38-year-old lawyer told The Vibes when contacted recently. “This is especially so among the younger generation. More young Malays have signed up for the party, as they see DAP as being a party that values young leaders, which is apparent in the number of young elected representatives within our ranks.” - More -
