BAYAN LEPAS - The atmosphere at Dewan Bukit Belah nomination centre was charged with excitement as former Bayan Lepas assemblyman, Azrul Mahathir Aziz, made a grand entrance at 8.20am.
Dressed in a white Malay traditional attire, Azrul was warmly received by hundreds of enthusiastic supporters from both Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Barisan Nasional (BN).
In a surprising turn of events, today marked a momentous day as former political adversaries came together, waving PH flags in unison.
The sight of red and blue supporters joining hands was a testament to the power of unity and cooperation.
The spotlight is on Gerakan president, Dominic Lau, who is set to go head-to-head with Azrul in a two-cornered contest for the Bayan Lepas parliamentary seat.
Both candidates are expected to garner significant attention from the electorate.
Anticipating a large turnout, the nomination centre saw the presence of police officers and authorities, ensuring the smooth conduct of the event.
The Election Commission (EC) has set Aug 12th as the polling day, and voters are eager to cast their ballots and make their voices heard.
The Bayan Lepas constituency will undoubtedly be a closely-watched area during the upcoming election, with all eyes on the unfolding events in the days leading up to the polls.
