GEORGE TOWN: The proposal by Penang PKR Youth that the chief minister’s post be rotated between parties in Pakatan Rakyat has been criticised by the state DAP Socialist Youth (Dapsy).
Its secretary, Ng Wei Aik, said the three component parties of Pakatan had not agreed to any new formula to rotate the post.
“This is a racial formula created by (Penang PKR Youth chief) Mohd Yusmadi. He is power crazy,” Ng said yesterday.
He was commenting on a statement by Mohd Yusmadi that a new formula be implemented so that leaders from all races could be appointed Penang Chief Minister.
Mohd Yusmadi, the Balik Pulau MP, said a new formula was needed to replace the Barisan Nasional formula, which gave the Chief Minister’s post to the Chinese and the Deputy Chief Minister’s post to the Malays.
Ng said Dapsy felt that the time was not ripe to rotate the post, adding that the appointment must be decided by the Pakatan component party which has the most number of seats.
