Empin (right) is all smiles as customers flock to his stall.
FOR over two decades, Empin Galing dedicated his life to politics, a path he was convinced would give him not only a sense of purpose but was also the best way to give back to his community.
Hailing from Kampung Gansurai in the northern Kota Belud district, about 80km from the Sabah capital, Empin served a local party with pride, even becoming a grassroots leader in his village.
