Penang DAP’s leadership spat shameful, says analyst - superadmin - 10-26-2023 PETALING JAYA: With the overwhelming support shown for DAP in Penang in the recent state election, questions are being asked whether its leaders have become arrogant and are taking voters for granted by engaging in an internal power struggle so soon after the polls. Netizens are saying that a power tussle just two months after the election makes the party look like it is more focused on which personality leads the state government than working to resolve issues affecting the people. Political analyst Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara said DAP should be ashamed of its internal bickering so soon after appointing the state’s chief minister. He warned that this is not what its supporters expect after giving their overwhelming support to the party, adding that they may be put off by the leaders’ failure to focus on the people’s needs. Recently, chief minister Chow Kon Yeow claimed that there were attempts to replace him before the August state election. However, the Penang DAP chairman later backtracked, saying he was merely speaking about how things were before the polls. - More -
