Analyst: DAP's move to rely on Malay appointments a worrying trend

PETALING JAYA: DAP's trend of having to appoint Malay leaders who fail to be elected into its state and national committees is worrying, said a political analyst.

“It is indeed worrying. Relying on appointments itself would not be good to show that DAP is a multi-ethnic party,” said Assoc Prof Dr Sivamurugan Pandian of Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM)’s School of Social Sciences.
