BUTTERWORTH: Former Penang deputy chief minister P Ramasamy has quit DAP.
The three-term Perai assemblyman, who joined DAP in 2005, made the announcement just weeks after he was dropped from the list of candidates for the Penang state election.
In today’s press conference, Ramasamy claimed that “Indians are upset with DAP” after he was dropped as a candidate, adding that other members are set to leave the party as well.
He then highlighted his stellar performance for the past 15 years as an assemblyman and insisted that his clean record meant he should not have been dropped by the party.
