Colourful crowd joins Guan Eng in solidarity march


GEORGE TOWN: A crowd wearing colourful red, blue, green and yellow T-shirts joined Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng in a solidarity march here on Sunday morning. 

They gathered at 7am at the Union Street and began marching with Guan Eng and veteran DAP leader Lim Kit Siang in the 2km walk towards the Esplanade. 

In T-shirts with words Sokong Guan Eng (Support Guan Eng), the crowd also chanted Sokong Guan Eng and Hidup Guan Eng (Long live Guan Eng).

The embattled Chief Minister is facing two corruption charges.   

The march ended at 8.45am after Guan Eng addressed the crowd.  

Among those present at the event were DAP MPs, assemblymen and members of Pakatan Harapan.

They include Bukit Mertajam MP Steven Sim and Bagan Dalam assemblyman A. Thanasekharan.
