HULU SELANGOR: After winning the Kuala Kubu Baharu state seat, Pakatan Harapan’s Pang Sock Tao says she’s ready to find a home here.

“I’ve stayed here throughout the two-week campaign period, and now I’m finding a home here. I will move in,” said the 31-year-old from Ampang during a press conference at the Umno Hulu Selangor office here on Saturday (May 11).

Her response also attracted cheers from supporters present at the building.

Selangor DAP chairman Gobind Singh Deo told Pang that “work had to start now”.
