Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil says DAP’s upcoming special congress is an internal party process, with the MADANI Government focused on economic and institutional reforms.
KUALA LUMPUR: The upcoming special congress of the Democratic Action Party (DAP) is part of the party’s internal process to ensure organisational decisions are upheld.
MADANI Government spokesman Datuk Fahmi Fadzil stated that DAP had informed its coalition partners in advance about the congress slated for July 12.
“This is DAP’s internal process to ensure that decisions taken are complied with within the party,” he told reporters after officiating an event here today.
He emphasised it is part of the party’s own decision-making process.
Prior to this, DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke said the congress would allow delegates to decide whether party office-bearers should relinquish their government posts.
Loke stressed that the party’s 40 Members of Parliament would continue to support Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s administration until the end of the term.
According to Fahmi, the MADANI Government’s primary focus remains on strengthening the national economy and advancing institutional reforms.
These efforts include proposing Bills on separating the roles of the Attorney General and Public Prosecutor, and on limiting the Prime Minister’s tenure to 10 years.
Both Bills are scheduled for their first reading in the Dewan Rakyat on Monday.
“Our aim is to ensure Malaysia is in the strongest possible position this year,” Fahmi said.
He expressed belief that the government’s efforts are on the right track and that all component parties understand the initiatives being undertaken.
