KUALA LUMPUR: Electors in the rural and interior areas can be considered "gold” by contesting parties in the 15th General Election, as they are the deciding factor that will determine the outcome of the Nov 19 polls.
There are 144 parliamentary seats in the rural areas, including Felda settlements, or more than half of the total 222 parliamentary constituencies in the country, and according to some political analysts, none of the seats can be claimed as "white” by any of the political parties.
