PoliticsMalaysia politics: Anthony Loke resigns as Negeri Sembilan DAP chairman

Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke is stepping down as chairman of the Democratic Action Party in the state of Negeri Sembilan. The move follows the party’s loss of two seats in the recent state elections, including Loke’s own seat. He will retain his role as the DAP’s secretary-general. The party faces another key test at a special congress on 16 August, where members will decide whether DAP ministers should continue serving in Prime Minister Anwar’s government.
