DAP wishes for Wong’s speedy recovery and that his wife Irene and family be blessed with the strength to prevail during this period.(en/cn)

Press Statement By DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng And MP For Bagan In Kuala Lumpur on 13.1.2013.

DAP is saddened by the announcement made by DAP Sarawak Chair and Sibu MP Wong Ho Leng that he is suffering from brain tumour. DAP expresses support for Wong as he seeks treatment and shares his confidence of full recovery.

DAP endorses and appreciates Wong’s assurances that he will not retire from politics but continue to be closely involved in the next general election. Clearly, Wong’s positive belief at his full recovery and level of commitment to the party should inspire DAP members and leaders to share the same courage and sense of responsibility.

Whilst the DAP leadership had known about Wong’s condition late last month, we admire his forthrightness in making public his ailment. During the coming six-week period where Wong is undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment at Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore, all DAP leaders, members and supporters should offer undivided support whether in prayers or otherwise. DAP Sarawak will also step in to share in Wong’s political and constituency duties as Sibu MP, Bukit Assek assemblyman, Sarawak Opposition Leader and Sarawak DAP chairman.

DAP wishes for Wong’s speedy recovery and that his wife Irene and family be blessed with the strength to prevail during this period.

Lim Guan Eng

民主行动党秘书长兼峇眼区国会议员林冠英于2013年1月13日在吉隆坡发表声明:

行动党对于砂拉越行动党主席兼诗巫区国会议员黄和联宣布患上脑瘤感到难过。行动党将全力支持黄和联接受治疗,并和他一样乐观相信他能够痊愈。

行动党也认同并感激黄和联保证他不会退出政坛,反而会积极参与来届大选。黄和联的乐观信心及对党的承诺,值得全体党员及领袖共同学习,拿出承担的勇气及负起责任。

虽然行动党领导层在上个月才知道黄和联的病况,我们钦佩他能够将公众坦率地交代本身的病情。接下来,他将前往新加坡依丽莎白医院,进行为期六个星期的放射性治疗及化疗。全体党领袖、党员及支持者都应该一起为他祈祷。砂州行动党也应该挺身而出,分担黄和联身为诗巫区国会议员、武吉阿瑟区州议员、砂州在野党领袖、砂州行动党主席的政治及选区事务。

行动党祝福黄和联早日康复,也希望他的妻子郑爱鴒及全家人能被赋予力量度过这个艰难的时刻。

林冠英
