Former PKR vice-president Shamsul Iskandar Md Akin has succeeded in his second attempt to lead the Hang Tuah Jaya division, defeating incumbent Rafee Ibrahim, who is also Malacca PKR chief.
The senior political secretary to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim polled 1,995 votes to Rafee’s 736 votes - from a total of 2,733 ballot papers issued during the PKR division-level election held in stages beginning Friday.
According to official data, the Hang Tuah Jaya PKR division has 3,558 members eligible to vote.
Shamsul (above), a former Hang Tuah Jaya MP, contested in a team with Zamzizul Nordin, who won against Deputy Youth and Sports Minister Adam Adli Abdul Halim for the post of deputy division chief.
Adam, the incumbent PKR Youth chief, made way for his position to be contested by another of Anwar’s political secretaries, Kamil Abdul Munim after the former breached the age limit for the youth leadership post.
