KUALA LUMPUR: Former Melaka DAP chairman Damian Yeo has vowed to quit politics rather than accept any move by Pakatan Harapan (PH) to cede the Bemban state seat to Bersatu in the upcoming Melaka election.
The former Duyong assemblyman said he learnt of the possibility while discussing candidates, campaign strategies and the political landscape with another former Melaka DAP chairman.
"But when I heard that the plan under PH Plus could involve giving up Bemban to Bersatu, my immediate reaction was... Forget it, I am out," he said in a Facebook post.
Yeo said the wounds of past political betrayals remained fresh, making it difficult for him to accept any proposed cooperation with Bersatu.
