Voters tired of instability, economy the priority
KUALA LUMPUR: Livestock and animal feed trader Zamri Haron lost RM400,000 during the floods last December that damaged his equipment and spoiled his stocks.
He received no government aid, and was forced to borrow money from friends and family to pay his workers and run the business.
As he prepares to cast his ballot in the general election tomorrow, Zamri said he will be choosing a candidate who can help deal with financial losses and a slowing economy.
“As traders ourselves, we don’t see the government helping or providing (aid). What we expect from the candidate who will lead this area is to be honest and help people,” he said.
