MIRI – Sarawak DAP’s candidate for Lanang, Alice Lau, has lodged a report at the Election Commission office in Sibu against a political rival for allegedly smearing her image in public.
Lau said she found that her posters put up in the constituency were being tampered with.
“Certain people have put up posters and banners next to mine saying I am a liar. This low-class campaigning tactic must be stopped.
“My complaint to the EC this morning has been accepted and the EC officer said steps will be taken to remove the posters smearing my image,” she told reporters in her office today.
She is being challenged by Parti Bumi Kenyalang secretary-general Priscilla Lau, GPS candidate Wong Ching Yong, and independent Datuk Wong Tiing Kiong.
Lau is the two-term incumbent MP for Lanang.
In the adjacent constituency of Sibu, Sarawak DAP election director Oscar Ling is facing PSB president Datuk Seri Wong Soon Koh and GPS candidate Clarence Ting.
Wong is assemblyman for Bawang Assan and Ting is the chairman of Sibu Municipal Council.
DAP and SUPP have been bitter political enemies for decades. – The Vibes, November 7, 2022
