The vote on Sunday is a high-stakes one for DAP, which is a crucial part of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s unity government, according to CNA.
The original purpose of the election was to elect a primary leadership team for the party’s upcoming general election, which must take place before February 2028.  ,
However, it has since turned into a life evaluation for Lim and his mother’s political dynasty because he is the son of fiery politician Lim Kit Siang.
A group of innovative officials led by Transport Minister Anthony Loke, who is the group’s secretary-general, are challenging the Lim family’s long-standing dominance of the DAP.
The vote will begin with statements from Lim Guan Eng and Loke, according to Malay Mail, and coincide with the group’s 18th National Congress.
4, 203 representatives from 1, 650 trees are qualified to take part in the CEC’s election. The CEC people will therefore separately cast their ballots for three-year terms in management positions.
Lim made the point last week that his group members must decide his political potential. His remarks came after United Malays National Organization ( UMNO ) president and vice president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi suggested Lim’s political era had ended and demanded that he step down.
According to Malay Mail, Zahid made his statement after Lim criticized UMNO’s plan to hold a joint march in solidarity with ex-prime minister Najib Razak.
