The People's Alternative Party (PAP) or in Malay Parti Alternatif Rakyat is a political party in Malaysia formed by a group of former DAP leaders and members led by former Democratic Action Party (DAP) vice-chairman Zulkifli Mohd Noor.[1][2]

Penang-based People’s Alternative Party (PAP) is hoping to provide Malaysians with an alternative to Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Rakyat (PR).[1][2][3][4]

After the PAP protest the delay of their registration,[5] the Registrar of Society (RoS) finally gave its approval of registration in a letter dated 30 October 2015.[6]
