The trouble with DAP recently

While MP Ronnie Liu has attracted fierce criticism recently – even from within his own party – his incendiary comments could be a reflection of the sentiments of the Chinese community. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, May 2, 2021.

WITH no fresh elections in sight, even though this government is clearly lacking in numbers and only sustained by the pandemic and the suspension of Parliament, attention would inadvertently shift to DAP’s internal poll, which is slated for June 20 – provided the country is not in another lockdown at that time.

While the stake for a national poll is ultimately higher because it is a democratic decision on who should govern, party polls are not a matter we should easily disregard as those who command the party dominate the decision on whose name should be in the ballot paper.

  • I am English educated, but I support what Ronnie Liu is saying. Are the "English chauvinists" in DAP forsaking a multi-racial approach to appease the Malay voters who may never, ever vote DAP over its voters all these years? Could it be that the great think and strategist, LCT have forgotten the "bird in hard" saying?
