Forget saving Malaysia, just save your own skin, Kit Siang told
“It was decided that everything possible must be done to stop Dr Tan from snatching the number one spot. That is the primary reason that Kit Siang will move mountains to stop Dr Tan from taking part in a fresh election.”
(Malaysia Outlook) – Instead of ‘saving Malaysia’, it is better for DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang to save his own party and himself, by complying with the directive from the Registrar of Societies (RoS) to hold a fresh Central Executive Committee (CEC) election.
In saying this, a former DAP leader appealed for Kit Siang to know when he is overstaying his welcome and save himself from the shame and indignity of being booted out by a mounting anti-Lim movement.
Tunku Abdul Aziz Tunku Ibrahim, at a press conference held at the Eastin Hotel, here, today said Kit Siang “in a very real sense has come to the end of the line”.
“The man who sees himself as the saviour of Malaysia cannot even save DAP from imploding as his rule is seen as self-serving,” the former DAP national vice-chairman said.
With a directive from the RoS looming over DAP, Tunku Abdul Aziz said a fresh election, should it take place, will see a regime change within the Opposition party.
This, according to Tunku Abdul Aziz, is the primary reason why the DAP stalwart is reluctant to comply with the directive.
He claimed that back in 2012, DAP’s intelligence feedback very strongly pointed that their hurdle was the “extremely popular Deputy Chairman Dr Tan Seng Giaw”.
Describing Dr Tan as DAP’s last gentleman politician, Tunku Abdul Aziz said the former is “a man of impeccable personal integrity and a true democrat”.
“It was decided that everything possible must be done to stop Dr Tan from snatching the number one spot. That is the primary reason that Kit Siang will move mountains to stop Dr Tan from taking part in a fresh election.
“Complying with the RoS directive will be an unmitigated personal disaster, the kiss of death and journey’s end for a brash political dynasty,” he further remarked, referring to DAP’s Lim Dynasty.
Tunku Abdul Aziz further claimed that to comply with the directive meant opening the flood gates to Dr Tan’s supporters.
