The DAP fully supports the proposal by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) to replace Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim with PKR's president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail as the new Menteri Besar.
DAP's secretary-general Lim Guan Eng claimed that Abdul Khalid has no longer the democratic mandate and legitimate authority to remain as menteri besar following his expulsion from PKR, and he should resign gracefully.
"All 15 Selangor DAP representatives have expressed full support of this decision.
"All three DAP Excos in Selangor will remain in their posts in the transition period until the new Selangor menteri besar is appointed," he said, reading a statement after chairing the party's central executive committee (CEC) meeting here today.
The three DAP excos are Sungai Pinang assemblyman Datuk Teng Chang Khim, Kota Alam Shah assemblyman Veraman Ganabatirau and Seri Kembangan assemblyman Ean Yong Hian Wah.
Yesterday, PKR decided to sack Abdul Khalid after concluding that the Selangor Menteri Besar had been openly defiant against the party's instruction to relinquish his position.
