State polls: PN sends senator Razali against BN T'gganu chief

 

The Terengganu polls will see Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) senator Razali Idris going up against state BN chief Ahmad Said in the Kijal seat.

Ahmad is the incumbent for Kijal, where he has served for 33 years since 1990, only interrupted by a one-term break.

Kijal is under the Kemaman parliamentary seat, which was won by PAS’ Che Alias Hamid in the 15th general election last year, with a majority of 27,179 votes.

Kijal is almost exclusively made up of Malay voters (98 percent) while the other two percent are Chinese.

Meanwhile, Ahmad Amzad Hashim, who was disqualified last month from the Kuala Terengganu parliamentary seat he won in the 15th general election, will be tasked with taking the seat back in an upcoming by-election.
