Leow Thye Yih (Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Liāu Thài-gī) is a Malaysian politician who served as Member of the Perak State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Pokok Assam from May 2018 to November 2022 and for Aulong from May 2013 to May 2018.
[2][3] In early January 2021, there were rumours that he and Leong were leaving DAP to join the opposing Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA), a component party of the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition but they both denied.
To reaffirm his denial, he signed a statutory declaration (SD) to serve as a DAP MLA for full term.
He explained that he left the party out of "desperation" to bring greater development to the area and to raise the standard of living of the Taiping people.
He faced his former party comrade and caretaker Member of Parliament (MP) for Ipoh Timor Wong Kah Woh who was nominated by DAP and PH to contest for the Taiping seat in the election.
