Defending my seat allows me to mentor future DAP leaders, says Guan Eng FMTNews FMTEng

GEORGE TOWN: DAP chairman Lim Guan Eng says he is standing for election in Penang because he loves the state and wants to be a mentor for newer party members coming through the ranks.

Lim said he would also oversee a smooth leadership transition, as caretaker chief minister Chow Kon Yeow enters his second and last term if Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional win in the coming polls. He drew parallels with successful leadership transitions in other countries, notably Singapore, where succession planning has had a positive effect. He said the new team in Penang, if elected, would need time to gel, learn, and gain experience.

However, Lim said if he was elected, he would not accept an exco position, reiterating that he would serve as a mentor to new faces. Lim said this could spell disaster, as Perikatan Nasional could easily defeat PH if this happens. He said if PH support dropped by 20%, it would be a close contest.
