Yet, Steven Sim was selected as Penang DAP chairman, Ramkarpal as his deputy and Hui Ying as secretary.
So what do you make of it?
From the Malay Mail:
Deputy chief minister II Jagdeep Singh Deo and state exco Wong Hon Wai only obtained 503 votes and 340 votes respectively. Jagdeep was the state DAP deputy chairman in the previous term, while Wong was the state treasurer.
The four other assemblymen with low votes are Heng Lee Lee (Berapit), Ong Ah Teong (Batu Lanchang), Joseph Ng Soon Siang (Air Itam) and K Kumaran (Bagan Dalam).

The Chinese island of Hainan, in the south of the country, has become a global hub for tilapia farming. On this island, large-scale fish farms employ techniques such as hormonal sex reversal to boost tilapia production and optimize market supply.
These advanced methods have positioned Hainan as a leader in the global aquaculture industry. But what exactly is the process behind this mass fish production?
Fish farming is a sustainable business.
No need to worry about bad weather at sea. Penang should get fishermen to move to fish farming.
talipia is not a good fish. it eat rubbish and destroy other species
What is good fish?
Empurau?
For me cheap is good.
Talipia ia an invasive fish and within the confined water, other native fishes do not have the chance to survive and will get extinct. Here we used to call it Africa fish as they comes from Africa.
The Penang Ferry Floating Museum, housed in decommissioned iconic ferry “Pulau Pinang” was towed on Thursday (Oct 3) from the Bagan Dalam slipway on the mainland to Swettenham Pier Cruise Terminal (SPCT) where it will be anchored before being moved to its permanent place at Tanjung City Marina.
The final journey of Feri “Pulau Penang” was reported on 8TV news:
Great for Penang to preserve memories of the iconic ferries. Cheers!
Anil, this is big yellow ferry, not big yellow taxi.
Cheers!
Heard that it has sprang a leak, now sitting sideways as per the picture.
GEORGE TOWN: Penang’s Light Rail Transport (LRT) dream will begin to take shape in December with a groundbreaking event, with the first station to be built in Lebuh Macallum.
Transport Minister Anthony Loke is said to have approved a date to get the 29km Mutiara Line landmark project off the ground.
GEORGE TOWN: Some 50 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) from China are seeking opportunities to expand their businesses in Penang following the influx of over RM400mil into the state.
The influx of these funds into Penang attracted the companies’ attention. The Silicon Island development and the upcoming light rail transit project connecting Komtar and Bayan Lepas on the island also enhanced the state’s competitive edge as a pivotal investment hub.

Anil can sing-along. Cheers!
Zairil who is in charge of Penang transport is not aware of the ineffective running of RapidPenang, where the bus arrival apps is not working (as are the display of bus information screens at many locations) ?????
More young people must learn to take public buses in Penang. This will ease traffic congestion. Also can reduce cases of illegal parking on roadside and pedestrian walkway!
Many may opt for RapidPenang once RON95 subsidy is reduced?
So they one who got the 2nd and 12th highest vote were selected? Wow, that’s very…democratic.
Jagdeep’s situation is shocking. He’s MIA due to his “personal issues” yet no replacement. He’s the DCM and exco member despite widespread dissatisfaction over his selection. Says so much about the CAT of the DAP state government.
The state should remove the DCM1 and 2 position. Why was this position even created ? What was suppose to be its function ? Is it suppose to represent something ?
What has this 2 position achieved so far ? To date, we Rakyat are still in the dark about it. Just wasting our tax money. Every now and then, the state keeps raising the rates ( under monopoly ).
We Rakyat do not have or are not given any cheaper alternatives. After assembly meeting, have durian feast while we slog.
uncle rakyat. slog is good. if you dont want to slog, stand for coming election. when you strike, you can have durian festivals. we can also join you in the festival. all the rakyat will be happy.
Picking up the pieces from MBI’s collapse
https://theedgemalaysia.com/node/730256
The remnants of MBI are still evident. Penang Times Square located in the heart of George Town is now a ghost mall. Ivory Properties Group Bhd’s Penang Times Square project is under receivership. The project comprises five phases, with phases one and two already completed. The third phase is uncompleted while work on the fourth and fifth phases have not started.
The uncompleted portions of the Penang Times Square project were placed under receivership last. MBI was the anchor tenant of Penang Times Square. Now, it is vacant.
A RM1MIL upgrading project is set to transform the Cecil Street market and hawker centre in Penang, providing the 300 traders and their customers with a more inviting and comfortable atmosphere.
DAP Happy Valley branch chairman R. Ganeson has accused the party of being afraid of its own shadow.

He could follow Ramasamy to leave the party?
Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow opted to stay out of the precarious elections He would likely continue his chief ministership term until the next state election, scheduled by 2027. Is this likely and possible?
One Penang DAP representative claims there is no tiger existing in present day rockets that dare to speak out like the late Karpal Singh, who if alive today would have defended Teresa Ok over the halal certification matter.
He speaks on behalf of the public, who sense present DAP ministers are too quite to safeguard their positions?
Bukit Mertajam MP Steven Sim has been appointed Penang DAP chairman after the state party elections today.
Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh is deputy chairman while Tanjong Bunga assemblyman Zairil Khir Johari and former state executive councillor Yeoh Soon Hin are vice-chairmen.
All said and done, it is still a chauvinistic political party. Actions, as you can see, speak much louder than words.
Let me ask: what weight does a vice chairman’s post or position carry in a political party or in any organization?
Shriek don’t like me asking questions here; he thinks it burdens the readers and stifles their thinking.
uncle rakyat, that is the party and its rules. are you a member the party? if not why kbkb? Why dont you kbkb about beliefs and culture too?
” An undemocratic action by the Democratic Action Party? ” by Ibrahim M Ahmad dd 23 Sep 2024, 09:00 AM https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/opinion/2024/09/23/an-undemocratic-action-by-the-democratic-action-party/ ======== While they outwardly promote the concept of Malaysian Malaysia, emphasizing its multicultural and multiracial identity, the reality is quite different. Behind the scenes, they engage in chauvinism. They criticize the majority group at the national level, pointing fingers and making various accusations, yet they themselves perpetuate the very behaviors they decry in others. It’s quite hypocritical, especially when led by someone who gives a false sense of warmth and good in giving bear hugs. Guess this is what it means when the political… Read more »
uncle rakyat – you can show and prove it is bad, can you show which parti is good? Cant show, then you show yourself to be sour grapes
Am just an old senior critic excising his constitutional rights with his rickety old fingers on the keyboard. I have no affiliation with any political party. Am simply critiquing the issues I see—just calling a spade a spade.
Just because I highlight issues involving one political party, it does not mean I have to endorse another. Political discourse sometimes requires us to be critical without necessarily providing an alternative at every turn.
Uncle rakyat – everything you write and speak is bad. Nothing good. At least you use your grey matter, analyse, dissect and then give critical analysis rather than kbkb, kopy here and there. Parrot here and there. Primary school budak can orso do that
Yep, other than you I don’t see nor hear any other primary school boys or girls saying anything here.
And yes, for bad people it will always be nothing good and anything written or spoken is bad.
Perhaps you should reflect on your own approaches before making judgments about others.
Here is another way of saying it. It is said that, ” One man’s meat is another man’s poison” . It simply means that what is beneficial or enjoyable to one person may be distasteful or unpleasant to someone else. The someone else is you, shriek.
