‘ROS has reasons not to recognise DAP’s CEC’


KUCHING: Assistant Youth Development Minister Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah believes that the Registrar of Societies (ROS) has reasons for not recognising the central executive committee (CEC) of Democratic Action Party (DAP).

However, he pointed out that if DAP was not happy, the party could bring the matter to court for a judicial review.

“Why must ROS unnecessarily withhold the recognition of the CEC … we do hear of many complaints from DAP members who are alleging irregularities in the second annual general meeting (AGM).

“Going to court is a decision for DAP to adopt … and if the party is not happy, I fully support them going to court for a judicial review of the ROS non-recognition,” Abdul Karim, who is a lawyer by training, said in his text message.

He was asked to comment on a report by an online news portal that DAP was prepared to take ROS to court, if it did not explain or withdraw a letter stating it would not recognise the party’s CEC.
