DAP to elect new leaders, including sec-gen, ahead of GE15

[superadmin]

KUALA LUMPUR – After nine years at the helm of DAP, Lim Guan Eng will make way for a new secretary-general at its 17th national congress tomorrow, which comes in the wake of the party’s underwhelming performances in the last three state elections.

Lim cannot be re-elected to the post because he has served the maximum three terms, but is still expected to wield a strong influence as he is likely to remain in the central executive committee (CEC). 

A total of 4,149 delegates will attend the one-day national congress physically at the Ideal Convention Centre in Shah Alam and vote in the CEC, which will lead the party into the 15th general election (GE15). The CEC members will among themselves elect the party’s office-bearers.
