MUAR: Independent candidate S. Jeganathan is banking on his community service record and his ability to speak two Chinese dialects to sway voters in the Simpang Jeram by-election on Sept 9.

The 55-year-old businessman said he picked up Mandarin and Hokkien from his neighbours and friends at a very young age.
