The by-election for the Chini state seat was ongoing and I decided to take a road trip to the Malay heartland in Pahang. I visited the parliamentary seats of Pekan (where Chini is located), Kuala Krau, Temerloh and Bera.

During my three-day trip out of my Subang Jaya bubble, I spoke to two dozen Malay voters to find out who they preferred to be Prime Minister and which party they would vote for in GE15.
