Sg Bakap polls: 88-year-old voter skips kebaya for practicality


NIBONG TEBAL: An elderly woman who promised to brighten up politics in a 'baju kebaya' outfit to vote in the Sungai Bakap state by-election today conceded she was unable to keep her fashionable pledge.

Selasiah Razak, 88, or more affectionately called 'Tok Siah', said she was unable to keep her word because riding pillion on her grandson’s motorcycle to the polling centre at SK Sungai Duri in Sungai Jawi was impractical.
