The Story of Lembah Pantai

Part 5 - The other side of the highway

Campaigning is part and parcel of a politician’s life, especially during an election period. And in Malaysia there is an actual official campaigning period, which begins as soon as nomination is done, right up till the day of election.

If you have been following this series, then you would remember that in Part 2, I had mentioned that the Lembah Pantai constituency consist of a wide demographic, which includes different races, income levels and social class.

And you would also remember that in Part 2, I had highlighted that the different social classes have different priorities and wants when it comes to how the country is run and governed

And again, you would also remember that in Part 2, I had brought you to a forum participated by the Pakatan Rakyat candidate, Nurul Izzah Anwar, in the upper-class area of Bangsar.

This time around, I shall bring you to see how both the Lembah Pantai candidates, Nurul Izzah Anwar, and the Barisan Nasional representative, Datuk Raja Nong Chik Zainal Abidin, go to the other side of the highway.
