The political message from Sg Bakap


IN THE run-up to the Sg Bakap by-election, many Perikatan Nasional (PN) leaders were nervous. After all, this had been a PKR stronghold since the 2008 general election.

And compared to other seats won by Perikatan on mainland Penang, this majority was one of the smaller ones. Some even confided that this was a seat Perikatan could lose.
