Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail is still considering whether to contest in the coming 13th general election.
"I have a list of considerations, but I think a supportive role is better," she said when asked whether she would be contesting a state seat.
Asked whether it meant she would not be contesting in the elections, she said: "(I'm) not completely saying no. It's still on the cards but at the moment, just discussing about it."
She was met by reporters at the PKR Convention in Bayan Baru, Georgetown, today.
Wan Azizah gave up her parliamentary seat of Permatang Pauh on July 31, 2008 to make way for her husband Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
