In some way, the DAP party polls today has sprung a few surprises as certain party stalwarts put up a poor showing.
But has anything within the party really changed in terms of its thinking on the type of development suitable for the people?
What does the new leadership think about the controversial mega-projects in Penang?
The ecological harmful highway projects on sensitive hill terrain such as the north coast “paired” road?
The untapped potential of water transport and the neglect of the ferry and bus services?
The shelved Halcrow transport blueprint that focused on affordable buses and trams and ferries instead of that multi-billion elevated LRT in a bloated transport plan?
The land reclamation on fishing waters?
A development model driven by property developers, many of whom seem more interested in building expensive housing rather than really affordable housing for the people?
The lack of interest in workers’ rights, especially the plight of the working class who are struggling to cope with high prices for essential items?
The lack of any real interest in food security and the challenges that farmers face?
The lack of any outspoken concern about the state of our underfunded public healthcare system?
Is there any real difference between the old and the new leadership of the DAP in terms of the party’s development ideology? You tell me.
