DAP to Contest 6 Parliamentary, 14 State Seats in Johor Bernama 17 April, 2013
DAP To Contest 6 Parliamentary, 14 State Seats In Johor Bernama 17 April, 2013 JOHOR BAHARU, April 17 (Bernama) - The DAP will contest 6 parliamentary seats and 14 state assembly seats in Johor during the 13th general election (GE13). Announcing this Wednesday, DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang said the party will field ten new faces for state assembly seats and one new face for parliamentary seat. Kit Siang, who will contest Gelang Patah parliamentary seat said the DAP will field a Malay candidate, Mahdzir Ibrahim, in Tanjung Piai parliamentary seat. "Our candidates can trigger a political tsunami in Johor and Malaysia," he told a press conference to announce the DAP canddiate list for Johor flanked by Johor DAP chairman Dr Boo Cheng Hau. Dr Boo who will defend Skudai state seat said the party was confident of winning at least one parliamentary seat and half of the 14 state seats contested. "The selection of candidates was made after discussion with all parties," he said, adding that the candidate for Labis parliamentary seat will be announced soon. Among the DAP big names who will contest in Johor are strategist Liew Chin Tong (Kluang) and Teo Nie Ching (Kulai). In 2008, Liew contested in Bukit Bendera while Teo contested in Serdang. Mahdzir, 37, said he was the coordinator of DAP internal bulletin Roketkini together with central committee member Zairil Khir Johari. The Batu Pahat born denied that the DAP was "anti-Malay" and "anti-Islam " as often claimed by Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN). Asked about his chances of winning the Tanjung Piai seat, he said the Malay voters could accept DAP if given a clear explanation about the party's struggle. -

Laporan Jawatankuasa Tinggi Pusat
Agenda 3: Laporan Jawatankuasa Tinggi Pusat AM 1. Persidangan Kebangsaan 2014 diadakan di One City, USJ 25, Subang Jaya, Selangor pada 14 Disember 2014, selepas Kongres Kebangsaan Ke-16 diadakan pada 15 dan 16 Disember 2012 di Pulau Pinang and selepas pengundian semula untuk Jawatankuasa Tertinggi Pusat (CEC) yang sedia ada dilaksanakan pada 29 Disember 2013 di Petaling Jaya, Selangor. 2. Tema Persidangan kali ini adalah “Berat sama dipikul, ringan sama dijinjing.” Ini adalah peribahasa Melayu lama yang mencerminkan komitmen DAP terhadap solidariti rakyat Malaysia ke arah perpaduan, toleransi, keadilan sosial dan peluang saksama untuk semua. KEDUDUKAN PARTI 3. DAP lawan ROS Sejak kejayaan DAP dalam pilihanraya umum 2008, Barisan Nasional yang dikuasai oleh UMNO telah menyerang Parti kita siang dan malam. Sebabnya mudah sahaja: Jika rakyat Malaysia, terutamanya orang Melayu, boleh menerima DAP atau politik bukan-kaum, ia akan menghancurkan politik perkauman di negara ini. Tindakan-tindakan hasad dengki UMNO-BN yang tak henti-henti itu telah menjangkau pula kepada tindakan Pendaftar Pertubuhan (ROS) yang mahu mengharamkan DAP menjelang PRU ke-13 tahun lalu. Kita tidak berundur dan dengan itu, kita menang pusingan pertama. Kemudian ROS datang menyerang kita lagi. Dan sekali lagi, kita bertempur di medan perundangan dan kita menang dalam perjuangan politik kita. ROS terpaksa tunduk di mahkamah selepas disaman oleh DAP, iaitu ROS perlu menerima hakikat bahawa arahan ROS yang menyatakan jawatankuasa tertinggi pusat Parti yang sah yang dipilih pada 29 September 2013 tidak boleh membuat keputusan untuk DAP kerana ia tidak diiktiraf, adalah tidak terikat dengan undang-undang. Walaupun DAP terpaksa bersetuju dengan tuntutan awal ROS supaya Parti kita mengadakan pemilihan semula - jika tidak, Parti menghadapi risiko diharamkan, dan kita tetap mengadakan pemilihan semula itu walapun dengan bantahan, kita tetap berjuang dengan semangat solidariti dan telah membuktikan bahawa kita tidak akan dapat dikalahkan. -
