As the DAP party elections on March 16 draw near, tensions within the party are reaching a boiling point, with Lim Guan Eng's leadership under scrutiny. At a recent dinner honoring Lim Kit Siang, an incident involving Lim Guan Eng’s aide and potential Penang chief minister candidate Steven Sim raised questions about the party's direction and leadership. Dr Oh Ei Sun, Principal Adviser at Pacific Research Centre joins us to discuss the impact on DAP and its future.
