JEMPOL: The Pakatan Harapan candidate for the Bahau state seat, Teo Kok Seong, does not take the opportunity to defend the seat lightly despite winning with a 8,408-vote majority in the last Negeri Sembilan election.
Teo, of DAP, said the remaining week before the polls will be used to meet as many voters in the constituency as possible.
“Despite previously winning with a majority of 8,408 votes, I will still work hard to defend Bahau. I do not consider it easy because every vote is important,” he told FMT.
Teo, who is involved in a straight fight with Barisan Nasional’s Chong Fui Ming, of MCA, said his campaign focus is on all levels of society regardless of race.
On claims that the wave of support for BN among non-Malay voters in Johor may occur in Negeri Sembilan, he said the political sentiments in the two states were different.
“That is Johor, this is Negeri Sembilan. The situation and sentiments here are different,” he said.
He said cooperation between BN and Perikatan Nasional was the right of both parties, but PH is ready to give its best.
“The important thing is for the people to choose candidates and parties that can truly help the people and fulfill their promises,” he said.
