Fresh battle line challenge

Fiery rematch: GE14 will likely see a repeat of the 2013 fight between Mohd Ali (left) and Shamsul, but the odds have changed after the redelineation exercise.

WHEN Bukit Katil MP Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin looks at his Melaka parliamentary constituency on the map, he no longer recognises it.

“Previously, on the map, you can see a straight line that divided Bukit Katil, which is in the interior, and Kota Melaka parliamentary seat, which sits along the Straits of Malacca,” said Shamsul, who is a PKR vice-president.
