DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke has promised a “bold and major” reshuffle of the party’s central executive committee (CEC) if he is re-elected in the upcoming party polls this Sunday.
He said that if re-elected, the CEC will undergo a major reshuffle to allow different leaders to take on new roles.
However, he stressed that this is not aimed at any individual or specific position.
“We will see a significant reshuffle and a push for younger leadership, but this does not mean sacrificing anyone.
“It’s simply about leaders taking on different roles at different times,” Loke said in a joint interview with selected media at the party headquarters this afternoon.
He expressed confidence that all party leaders would accept these changes.
“Different circumstances require different needs and strategies, and I believe every leader will understand the need for such adjustments,” said the transport minister.
Loke stated while this is his plan for the party, it ultimately depends on whether he is re-elected and the outcome of the leadership contest.
He said that this proposal is driven by the belief that while DAP is currently in a strong position with over 100 elected representatives, the party must not become complacent.
Instead, he said DAP must maintain a sense of urgency to ensure continued growth and strength.
