GEORGE TOWN – Penang DAP has dismissed talk that its relationship with its Pakatan Harapan partner is on edge after Steven Sim issued support for PKR to defend its seats in the state, including its stronghold in Permatang Pauh.

In a statement, Sim, who is state DAP publicity secretary, said the dominant party in Penang will stand with PKR in the next general election to defend Pakatan Harapan (PH) in the state.

He was referring to a report that Seberang Jaya assemblyman Dr Afif Bahardin – a former PKR member – may be eyeing the Permatang Pauh seat, whose incumbent is Nurul Izzah Anwar, daughter of PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

As the head of Bukit Mertajam DAP, Sim said he will fully support PKR in defending Permatang Pauh as it is the symbol of the reform movement.
