Behind the scenes to front row politics


Fahariyah: ‘When you are in politics, you hold power and when you hold power, then you are able to help the people.’

MOST politicians love the spotlight and being in the news. For them, talking about themselves seem to come naturally. But it is quite the opposite with Datuk Fahariyah Md Nordin of Puteri Umno.

Despite having been in politics for 16 years, the 38-year-old, who was appointed senator in December, comes across as a shy and very private person, especially when it comes to opening up about herself.
