Month of elections!

[UPDATED VERSION] Month of August is all about elections!

Penang chief minister Koh Tsu Koon, who is also the Gerakan vice-president announced his intention to contest the party deputy presidency, ended months of speculation that he is not so keen to go against the incumnebt party deputy-president Kerk Choo Ting.

He insisted that the outcome of the party polls wouldn’t affect his relationship with Kerk.

About 2,000 delegates from 200 divisions nationwide are expected to attend the national delegates conference on Aug 27 and 28.

Meanwhile, the eldest son of Ling Liong Sik, Ling Hee Leong is expected to announce his candidacy for the MCA Youth deputy chief post.

However, he declined to comment which post he is going for and had said earlier that he didn’t rule out the possibility of contesting the top post.

Incumbent Youth secretary-general Liow Tiong Lai and Kapar MCA Youth chairman have announced their decision to contest the Youth chief post.

It’s going to be a close fight, meaning to say, do-or-die, just like this and this.
