KKB BY-ELECTION | With disappointed Chinese and disgruntled Indian voters, some have posited that Pakatan Harapan’s quest to retain the rustic and scenic Kuala Kubu Baharu seat could turn into a misadventure.

Following Umno Youth chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh’s vaporescent response to the KK Mart issue and Harapan’s inaction, which in the words of political scientist Wong Chin Huat, “made even the green wave appear less scarier”, these voters are considering abstention as an option to send Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and his government a message.
