No permit, no debate, so next is a casual get-together

MUAR: The much-anticipated showdown debate between two parliamentary candidates in Muar fizzled out with police refusing to give the greenlight.

The debate was to have pitted Pakatan Harapan candidate Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman against Barisan Nasional’s Datuk Seri Razali Ibrahim at Muar Traders Hotel here at 9pm yesterday.
