Factionalism in Perak DAP is set to hit a crescendo as it was strongly rumoured the the state deputy chairperson M Kulasegaran would be leaving his state post.
Kulasegaran - also the Ipoh Barat MP and party national vice-chairman, tweeted late last night in a short message on micro-blogging website Twitter, “Just finished DAP leadership meeting in Ipoh. Sad day as I will announce what is lacking in Perak leadership tomorrow (Saturday) and why I have to leave for good.”
He has dropped strong hints about leaving his state position, but maintained that he is still a party man when he later tweeted at 12.45am, hours after his first posting, “I have no intention to leave DAP. But contemplating to quit state leadership. Enough is enough. At tomorrow's press conference, I will explain all.”

Sources have told Malaysiakini that party supremo Lim Kit Siang, vice-president Tan Kok Wai and national organising secretary Teresa Kok quickly travelled to Ipoh yesterday for high-level talks to mediate things.
