PH is represented by DAP’s Pang Sock Tao while PN has fielded Hulu Selangor Bersatu acting chief Khairul Azhari Saut. They will be facing PRM’s Hafizah Zainudin and independent candidate Nyao Ke Sin.
Their candidacy was announced by Election Commission returning officer Yuhanas Auree Kamaruddin at the Hulu Selangor district multipurpose hall and sports complex at Kampung Tun Abdul Razak, Kuala Kubu Bharu, after nominations closed at 10 this morning.
Parti Orang Asli Malaysia (Asli), which had earlier said it would be taking part in the by-election, announced late last night that it was pulling out of the race due to “a technical issue”.
The seat fell vacant following the death of three-term DAP assemblyman Lee Kee Hiong on March 21 from cancer.
In the state election last August, Lee retained the seat for PH with a 4,119-vote majority over PN’s Henry Teoh, who is from Gerakan.
The constituency is a mixed seat with the 40,226 registered voters split almost evenly between Malay voters and non-Malay voters.
The EC has set May 11 as polling day, while early voting will be on May 7. - FMT
