KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 1 — DAP must prepare for its toughest general election yet as growing cooperation between Barisan Nasional (BN) and Perikatan Nasional (PN) threatens to upend the country’s political landscape, Anthony Loke said today.

The DAP secretary-general warned that recent political pacts struck between the two coalitions across Johor, Negeri Sembilan, and Melaka present a serious challenge to DAP and its Pakatan Harapan (PH) partners, NST reported.

Addressing delegates at the Kuala Lumpur Federal Territories DAP annual convention today, Loke urged members to cast aside complacency and tighten the party’s machinery ahead of the 16th general election (GE16).

“Whatever their political calculations, the most important thing is that our party must remain united and strengthen ourselves together with our partners in Pakatan Harapan,” he said.
