GE15: We chose Mike Chong as Cheras candidate to represent younger voters, says Dr Wee


KUALA LUMPUR: The decision to field his former special officer, Chong Yew Chuan, as a candidate for Cheras was made to give voters the option of a younger person to represent them, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The MCA president said if Barisan Nasional wanted to effect a transformation in tandem with the heartbeat of a younger generation, they should rightly select candidates who can understand their needs.
