An MIC leader has criticised DAP for only voicing frustration over the slow pace of government reforms after its heavy defeat in the Sabah state election.
MIC central working committee member RT Rajasekaran described DAP’s six-month ultimatum to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim as pure theatrics.
He pointed out that DAP had ample chances to raise concerns directly with Anwar over the past three years.
Timing Raises Eyebrows
DAP secretary-general Loke Siew Fook recently warned the party would reassess its role in government if meaningful reforms do not materialise within six months.
Rajasekaran questioned why issues like e-invoicing and other shortcomings were highlighted only after DAP lost all eight seats it contested in Sabah last month.
He said the public can clearly see DAP is trying to regain support ahead of the next general election rather than acting on principle.
Call for Self-Reflection
Rajasekaran urged DAP ministers to own the weaknesses in their own ministries instead of pointing fingers at the prime minister.
He argued these failures contributed to the party’s poor showing in Sabah.
Selangor PKR election director N Sathia Prakash echoed the sentiment, saying some leaders are shifting blame instead of admitting their own arrogance cost votes.
He stressed that the unity government needs humility and cooperation, not slogans or finger-pointing, to move forward.
