Battleground Lembah Pantai

Incumbent Nurul Izzah Anwar is expected to face a stiff challenge from Federal Territories and Urban Well-being Minister Datuk Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin. The registration of about 15,000 new voters in the Lembah Pantai constituency by both sides has made the outcome even more difficult to predict.

LEMBAH Pantai, a mixed and urban parliamentary constituency won by Nurul Izzah Anwar as a precocious 28-year-old newcomer in 2008, is shaping up into one of the hottest and most keenly-watched battles of the upcoming general election.
