IPOH: Barisan-Umno candidate for the Tambun parliamentary seat Datuk Aminuddin Md Hanafiah in the 15th General Election (GE15) is unbothered by the competition he faces for the seat.
"Yes, I'm in between two giants. Let them fight," he said during a walkabout at a morning market in Chemor.
"Big names are one thing, but what you offer is another. Anwar is an outsider, he came here just to fish votes. Faizal being Faizal lah. You have given him a chance. But this is my kampung and I am offering myself as a local boy," he said. "I can feel the atmosphere is different from 2018. That year was the peak of hatred against Barisan. But after people compared what they got when Pakatan was in power, they told me they want Barisan back. For them, Pakatan did not walk the talk," he said.
"We've been facing this issue with local authorities for years. What we want is a candidate who solves issues within the campaigning period instead of making us wait until after the election," said a seller, who only wanted to be known as Siva.
