Malaysiakini - Boo's fate in limbo after DAP fields his protégé in Skudai (extracts):
![]()
Johor DAP veteran Boo Cheng Hau's fate is in limbo after DAP announced that his disciple Tan Hong Pin would contest his Skudai state seat in the 14th general election.
Tan was announced as the Skudai candidate by DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng at the end of a ceramah in Batu Pahat tonight.
Lim declined to comment if Boo had been dropped from the Johor DAP election line-up completely, and skirted around a question on whether he would contest a parliamentary seat instead.
"You write the news today and I will have a press conference tomorrow," he said.
Boo had previously rejected an offer for him to contest the Labis parliamentary seat.
When contacted, Boo insisted he will not go to Labis and was "disappointed" that Tan had been fielded in his seat.
However, he said he would not contest Skudai as an independent candidate.
Dr Boo, you should now watch put for the abusive vicious rabid Hell-Hound packs.

Insult Dr Tan's ancestors as well? Such were the fates of Sangeet Kaur, Maryan Lee, Hafidz Baharom, etc etc etc?
That's the DAP's new world, comply or else. You can console yourself you aren't part of it now nor a puppet of Mahathir.

Such has been Lim Guan Eng's arrogance that he spoke to the press in an aggressive polemical manner - ie. the press do A, he'll do B (to undermine A).

The purge of those not with the Lim's within the DAP continues as I have written in DAP's Night of Long Knives.
Dr Boo, you should now watch put for the abusive vicious rabid Hell-Hound packs.
Dr Tan Seng Giaw, who has just suffered exactly your same fate, the fate that DAP saw fit to deal out to a 40-year old party veteran, the incumbent Kepong MP for 36 years, told us that after he was removed from being the DAP's candidate for Kepong, many people called [him] a 'running dog', a traitor and even insulted [his] ancestors.
