A lawyer’s calculated gamble


KINABATANGAN: Knowing the heavy odds stacked against him, lawyer Goldam Hamid Salangah (pic) walked into the nomination centre here on Saturday a nervous man to file his papers for the Kinabatangan parliamentary by-election.

The 40-year-old based in Kota Kinabalu is up against Barisan Nasional’s Mohd Naim Kurniawan Bung and Warisan’s Datuk Saddi Abdul Rahman for the vacant seat seat following the death of Naim’s father Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin on Dec 5.
