I whole-heartedly congratulate our new Deputy Chief Minister I of Penang, YB Dr. Mansor Othman for winning the state seat of Penanti with a whopping 5,558-vote majority, defeating other 3 candidates contested by clinching 91% of total votes cast.
Although a relatively low turnout – at about 46.15%, but its enough to indicate that PKR has not lost support amongst the strong opposition stronghold of PKR at Penanti located in Permatang Pauh. I just can’t wait to see the outcome of the next by-election at Manek Urai, although I think that BN would be contesting this time.
