GEORGE TOWN: Gerakan president Datuk Seri Mah Siew Keong says he will not take up a senator’s post which will then pave a way for him to become a minister if he loses the Teluk Intan parliamentary seat.

“When I contested there at the last general election, I said that I would not take up the senator’s post if I lose. I kept my word,” he said.
