SEBERANG PERAI, Aug 9 — As the state elections draw near, up north on the mainland of Penang, in the small township of Bertam, former assemblyman Khaliq Mehtab Mohd Ishaq is working against time to visit as many of his previous constituents as possible.
He said his campaigners will not avoid Barisan Nasional bastions as he wanted to engage with all the voters in Bertam.Khaliq held the seat for one term, after he won it under the Pakatan Harapan flag back in 2018 when Bersatu was still in the coalition. Khaliq had won the seat with only a slim majority of 217 in a three-corner fight against BN and PAS candidates back in 2018.
Khaliq said it is possible for him to retain his seat as the people there are expecting more than just a PN state assemblyman but a change in state government.
