- 4 years ago
While BN has yet to name its candidate, Umno vice-president Ismail Sabri Yaakob today assured that the coalition would be fielding a younger candidate than that chosen by Pakatan Harapan to contest the Tanjung Piai parliamentary by-election.
Even so, he declined to reveal to reporters any details on the candidate, including race and gender.
“(BN will field a candidate) who is younger than Pakatan Harapan’s. A young person,” he said to reporters at Parliament lobby today.
This comes as Gerakan today revealed its candidate for the coming polls on Nov 16 - 38-year-old party deputy secretary-general Wendy Subramaniam.
Aside from Gerakan, Harapan has also announced its candidate - Tanjung Piai Bersatu chief Karmaine Sardini, 66.
