SEBERANG PERAI, July 27 — DAP members and supporters should focus on winning the state elections to retain power in Penang instead of squabbling over the selected candidates, said state party chairman Chow Kon Yeow.
“The candidates’ list was already finalised by the national selection committee so we should all focus on campaigning to win the election now,” he said in a press conference after attending a fire safety seminar today.“The best way to put out this fire is not to comment on it,” he said. “In each election, when the candidates’ list is announced, there will be some who are dissatisfied and leave the party to be independent candidates,” he said.He said the dissatisfaction among some members will need to be managed well by the party.So far, he said only David Marshel has left the party to contest as an independent candidate.
He had also alleged that there was “one hand” involved in the selection of candidates and that there was a plot to oust Chow as state party chairman and as chief minister.
