What does the Nenggiri by-election tell us?


AS UMNO delegates from around the country assemble at the World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur, there is much to celebrate. The party enjoyed a substantial fillip when it recaptured the Nenggiri state seat in Kelantan from arch-rival Bersatu.

In the Nenggiri by-election, Umno candidate, Mohd Azmawi Fikri Abdul Ghani, performed significantly better compared to the state election where the Umno candidate had previously lost.
