MP SPEAKS | It also pulverises myth that Harapan gov't is a one-term administration.
by-election result has pulverised two myths in Malaysian politics – that Pakatan Harapan and Warisan in Putrajaya and Sabah are only one-term governments, and the invincibility of the shameless '' campaign, which aims to give a new lease of life to former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak.
If Umno successfully mobilised these members to vote, with the promised 150 percent support by former party bigwig Abdul Rahman Dahlan, together with the final appearance of Najib in Sandakan and the votes amassed by the grand opposition coalition in Sabah, a victory for the PBS candidate was on the cards.
Wong created a political miracle despite the low turnout of 54.4 percent, compared to 71 percent in the 14th general election, winning 74.18 percent of the total votes as compared to 67.97 percent in the 14th general election.
