Kuala Lumpur:The Democratic Action Party (DAP) is determined to continue its role in nation-building, whether it is in government or opposition, by advocating for transparent, fair, and sustainable policies, according to its vice-president Teo Nie Ching.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Teo, who also serves as the Deputy Communications Minister, emphasized that this principle forms the foundation of DAP's efforts to ensure Malaysia progresses as a nation with sustainable governance, prioritizing the interests and welfare of its people.

The DAP is committed to contributing to nation-building beyond economic and physical development by strengthening inclusive and fair policies, which include addressing the needs of women and children. Teo highlighted that DAP's participation in the MADANI Government offers the party an opportunity to implement its principles into actionable policies through direct involvement in the administration.

Teo also discussed DAP's strategies ahead of the 16th General Election, indicating that the party relies on its achievements and track record to garner voter support. She cited the establishment of the Malaysian Media Council as a significant reform agenda achieved under the MADANI Government, alongside the proposal to limit the Prime Minister's term of office.

Addressing the challenges of policy implementation, Teo acknowledged that not all decisions gain unanimous support, especially when conflicting interests are at play. She underscored the importance of showcasing DAP's track record in policy implementation as evidence of their efforts, despite facing opposition, such as the resistance encountered when raising the minimum wage to RM2,000.
