SG BULOH – Things are certainly heating up as the 15th general election (GE15) kicks into high gear, especially in hot seats like Sg Buloh, with Ketereh Umno division chief Tan Sri Annuar Musa and Selangor Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Tan Sri Noh Omar spotted making their rounds in the area today.
They had attended the community gadget presentation at the Saujana Utama DigitalTaman Economic Centre earlier with Khairy Jamaluddin, the BN candidate for Sg Buloh, and a meet-and-greet event in Central Mart here.
Speaking after presenting gadgets to local community representatives, Annuar said he was confident that Khairy would win due to his excellent performance in all his portfolios.
“Our country, especially those in Sg Buloh, need quality leaders, but let’s not forget their personality as well.
“The candidate (Khairy) has repeatedly proven that he is a hardworking person, and has potential locally as well as internationally. No matter which portfolio you give him, he can manage them well,” he said.
He said Khairy’s personality and performance, in addition to his courage in contesting in a “black” area, proved he was capable of handling the duties of an elected representative there.
“Not many ministers would jump into an area with a deficit majority of tens of thousands. But a good seed tossed into the ocean can eventually become an island,” Annuar said.
Although Annuar and Noh were not selected as GE15 candidates, it did not stop them from helping their colleagues who are contesting this time.
Khairy is taking on six other candidates in Sg Buloh – Datuk R Ramanan (Pakatan Harapan), Mohd Ghazali Md Hamin (Perikatan Nasional), Mohd Akmal Mohd Yusof (Gerakan Tanah Air) and Ahmad Jufliz Faiza (Parti Rakyat Malaysia), and independents Syed Abdul Razak Syed Long Al Sagoff and Nurhaslinda Basri. – Bernama, November 8, 2022
