WHERE are the Sheraton movers now? What are they doing come the 15th General Election (GE15)? We know that it’s main initiator, Datuk Seri Azmin Ali will be defending his Gombak constituency as a Bersatu candidate under the Perikatan Nasional coalition (PN), a move which this time around may see him lose his deposit to a stronger challenger, who is none other that PKR affiliated Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

While incumbent Ampang MP Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin will defend her seat under Parti Bangsa Malaysia (PBM) also aligned to Parti Gabungan Sarawak (GPS), Zuraida’s affiliation however may not be an issue for her as she has been a great and hardworking grassroots MP since 2008 when she first won the Ampang seat which she has since.

Ampang voters are much inclined to vote for the candidate of their choice rather than a new elected representative. Zuraida, who is known as “Ibu Bangsa Malaysia” despite some internal fiascos between her and PBM founder Larry Sng, can defend her seat well despite facing former colleague Rodziah Ismail from PKR.

KUALA SELANGOR – The battle for the parliamentary seat here is set to see incumbent Pakatan Harapan (PH) Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad in a four-corner fight against Barisan Nasional’s (BN) Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) Mohd Noor Mohd Shahar and Pejuang’s Shaid Rosli.
