Astro presenter’s Facebook post on Bentong ‘blackout’ draws more flak


THE issue of the alleged blackout in Bentong on May 5, posted by Astro AEC show host Gan Jiang Han on his Facebook page, continues in major Chinese dailies with MCA deputy president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai expressing his unhappiness.

Sin Chew Daily quoted Liow as saying the posting had misled the people into believing there was a blackout at the Bentong counting centre, which allegedly led to the Barisan Nasional winning the parliamentary seat.
