I was at a DAP political rally two nights ago. It was held at their head office in Georgetown.

At around 8pm, the crowd swelled. When Lim Guan Eng arrived, there was hardly breathing space along the pathway outside the party headquaters.
 
The candidates introduced themselves and gave fiery speeches. Ng Wei Aik, a first time candidate contesting for the Komtar state assembly seat, told me that he will be calling for a press conference the next day to highlight the appalling condition of Komtar. Apparently, incumbent Datuk Lim Gim Soon's slogan is "Komtar Good, Komtar Best". What is for sure, may the best man win.
 
Although there is no repeat of the previous Tanjung battles, the battle to win the hearts and minds of the people has started in Tanjung. The parliament seat was won by Chow Kon Yeow of DAP. His challenger is Khaw Veon Sze of BN-Gerakan.
