00:00Former Penang's second deputy chief minister, P. Ramasamy, has suggested that Gobind Singh

00:07Dio's loss in the Selangor DAP elections is likely due to his non-alignment with the

00:13party's warlords.

00:15Yesterday, Gobind, who served as the Selangor DAP chairman, failed to secure one of 15 spots

00:22on the party state committee, finishing in 16th place with 675 votes.

00:28Ramasamy contrasted Gobind's defeat with Stephen Sim's rise to become Penang DAP chairman

00:33in September.

00:35He said Sim's victory was due to him being aligned with the dominant faction.

00:41Ramasamy claimed that factional politics exist within DAP and has a bearing on the party's

00:47elections and appointments.

00:50He also said powerful Chinese warlords control access for non-Chinese candidates in DAP,

00:57which in fact limits their rise in ranks despite their talent.
