PETALING JAYA: DAP is likely to field a Malay candidate for the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election next month, according to a well-placed source from the party.
The source said Hulu Selangor Municipal Council member Saripah Bakar was currently in the lead to represent Pakatan Harapan on May 11.
“The party is expected to field a Malay candidate as of now due to the high percentage of Malay voters,” the source who asked to remain anonymous told FMT.
Kuala Kubu Baharu is a mixed seat, with Malays comprising 50% of the electorate, followed by Chinese (30%) and Indians (18%).
