Regaining the urban Chinese vote
Barisan Nasional (BN) won the Ijok by-election, but at a cost. The results showed a significant swing of the Chinese vote away from the ruling coalition.
Coupled with survey findings released by the Merdeka Centre in February, this indicates that - should a general election be called now - BN parties that reply on the urban vote may lose quite a lot seats.
The question is how BN expects to regain the confidence of urban voters. The answers may be all too obvious, but the will and determination to implement changes may be lacking.
