GEORGE TOWN, Sept 18 — PKR vice president, who is also the Permatang Pauh member of Parliament, Nurul Izzah Anwar has voiced her intention to defend the seat in the upcoming 15th General Election (GE15).

“I am not the one who decides although my heart desires it (to defend the Permatang Pauh seat).


“As a soldier of the party, I hope that I will not be dropped from being a candidate,” she said in a media conference before opening a dialogue session with the Village Community Management Council (MPKK) here today.

Nurul Izzah, who is State Leadership Council (MPN) chairman for Perlis, Kedah and Penang said the Pakatan Harapan leadership has fixed Sept 20 to discuss preparations for GE15 such as allocation of seats and candidates, which is expected to be completed by this month. — Bernama

Her mother, Wan Azizah, nearly lost Permatang Pauh in 2004, and managed only to escape by a slim majority after TWO recounts. Thus, she shouldn't be too complacent.

  1. 2004 was the peak of the Pak Lah Bao Kung euphoria.
    Even many Penang Chinese voters got caught up in the mania, and voters flocked to BN in droves.
    DAP was severely mauled as well.

    Nothing like that correlation of
    Pro- BN forces has occured in the 18 years since then, and I don't expect it to.

  2. I see her, like Rafizi, as a future leader Malaysia needs.

    Thus I hope she can stand at PP and develop herself.
