DAP won 46 of the 47 state seats contested in four states namely Negeri Sembilan, Penang, Selangor and Kedah.
"Before this, DAP used to be plagued with various fake stories, but the people can now see the party's commitment... this puts the party in a positive light," said Nga who described winning the Sungai Pelek seat in Selangor as the sweetest victory, as 60 per cent of the constituents are Malays.
Nga who is also the Local Government Development Ministry in a press conference after the pre launch of the 2023 Ministry's Excellence Award Ceremony, said the success also shows cooperation between the parties in the Unity Government is on the right track.
"This is a good start considering that the DAP-UMNO alliance has only worked together for eight months...give time for the Unity Government to be strong, stable and work towards excellence," he said.
DAP's success in winning 19 seats in Penang, Selangor (15), Negeri Sembilan (11) and one seat in Kedah, saw the party achieve a 97.9 per cent victory in the state polls on Aug 12 - BERNAMA
