Selangor DAP gives Gobind the boot
KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 11, 2024: Former Selangor DAP chief Gobind Singh Deo was “unceremoniously” booted out of the state party elections yrsterday.
Gobind, 50, the current Digital Minister, is a son of the late Karpal Singh.
Losing a seat in the state leadership is telling of the lack of confidence of party members in Gobind.
Next, what is the right thing for Gobind to do morally?
Step down gracefully and with dignity intact as minister and make way for younger and more robust DAP leaders. Don't be shameless like the majority of politicians who cling on to positions until they finally crumble politically.
