Hot on the heels of the state government, Penang Gerakan today demanded it take action against a DAP assemblyperson's father for allegedly taking money in return for public housing units.

State Gerakan acting chairperson Oh Tong Keong pointed out that 72 hours have passed since a video clip emerged, showing Lim Keat Seong with several individuals who claimed to have paid him cash in return for low-cost housing units.

The 68-year-old retiree is the father of DAP Sungai Pinang assemblyperson Lim Siew Khim, who has denied any involvement in the alleged housing scam and distanced herself from her father's dealings.
