More party resignations? That’s news to Guan Eng

He says there is also no evidence that two more senior DAP politicians in Selangor and Johor are leaving the party

GEORGE TOWN: DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng has confidently dismissed predictions that more members will leave the party.
He said DAP was unfazed by the resignation of four elected representatives in Malacca over the weekend.
“I am sure our members will stick with the party. The majority of DAP members in Malacca have also indicated support for the leadership,” Lim told FMT today.
On Sunday, Kota Melaka MP Sim Tong Him and state assembly members Goh Leong San, Lim Jak Wong and Chin Choong Seong quit the party claiming loss of confidence in the party’s leadership, which they said had moved away from its original objectives.

They may stand as independent candidates in the next polls.
Lim said the Malacca episode was an isolated one and is unlikely to be repeated.
“The resignations were due to the personal grievances of the Gang of Four as a result of their defeat and rejection by Malacca DAP members in the 2015 party elections.” he said.
Lim said he had also not heard of anything to support the prediction that two more senior DAP politicians in Selangor and Johor were leaving the party.
“Let’s see whether BN can orchestrate the end of DAP because this is news to us.
“But if it does not happen, then BN has a lot of explaining to do.”
Recently, Tunku Abdul Aziz Tunku Ibrahim, who was formerly DAP vice-chairman, claimed two DAP loyalists from Selangor and Johor would be leaving the party next to signal “the beginning of the end for DAP”.

Best for DAP if those who do not belief in the Malaysia for Malaysians struggle leave now because if they stay back can sabotage the next GE14 for DAP and the opposition. Please do not stop them and just thank them for doing DAP a favour by leaving DAP now than later
