“This is my second chance and I will work hard to win I do not want to underestimate the opponent or be too confident of winning this by-election. “I do not think that this by-election will give me the same pressure as GE14 which at that time my opponent was a menteri besar , who is now a former menteri besar),” he said.Recognising that the Rantau state seat is a Barisan Nasional stronghold, Dr Streram, who prefers to contest as the underdog, said a more aggressive campaign would be undertaken to ensure victory for PH.
Describing the competition for votes as intense, Dr Streram said various strategies had been drafted including using his experience as an anaesthetist to win over voters.
