ChatGPT

Agree

Yes, but only for medical use

Some DAP members, such as Dr. Ong Kian Ming, have shown support for medical marijuana. In 2018, he tweeted about the potential benefits of medical marijuana and urged the Malaysian government to consider its legalization. However, the party as a whole has not taken a strong stance on this issue.

Slightly agree

No

The DAP has not explicitly opposed the legalization of marijuana, but the party has not taken a strong stance on this issue either. The current laws in Malaysia criminalize marijuana, and the DAP has not actively pushed for its legalization.

The DAP has not explicitly supported the legalization, taxation, and regulation of marijuana. While some members have shown support for medical marijuana, the party as a whole has not taken a strong stance on this issue.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

There is no evidence to suggest that the DAP supports the immediate release of individuals serving time solely for drug offenses. The party has not taken a strong stance on drug policy reform, and Malaysia's current laws impose strict penalties for drug offenses.

Very strongly disagree

No, and increase penalties for non-violent drug offenders

The DAP has not advocated for increasing penalties for non-violent drug offenders. While the party has not taken a strong stance on drug policy reform, it is unlikely that they would support harsher penalties given their progressive nature.
