PETALING JAYA: The seat might have changed - from the Bukit Nenas seat in the Selangor State Assembly in 1969 to the Kuala Lumpur Bandar/Bukit Bintang parliamentary seat in 1974 - but it was still business as usual for assemblyman-turned-MP Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye in the new Federal Territory.

"All the seats became Parliamentary seats, but there weren’t too many changes on the ground as I was handling the same matters as I did as the Bukit Nenas assemblyman," said Lee.
