DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke said the party will hold a special congress on July 12, in which its delegates will determine whether its officeholders should step down from all government positions.

Sin Chew Daily reported Loke characterising the gathering as an internal “referendum”, emphasising that even if members opt to withdraw from executive roles, the party’s 40 MPs would still support the government led by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim until the next general election.
