By-election again!

Malaysian are still busy with by-elections after the general election on 8 March 2008.

The recent two by-elections, which were held at Permatang Pauh and Kuala Terengganu, won by Pakatan Rakyat.  

Member of Parliament for Bukit Gantang, Roslan Shaharum, has passed away this morning, and paving the way for another by-election within a year. 

Bukit Gantang is a Malay majority seat with 27% Chinese and 10% Indian votes.  

The by-election is very crucial to BN, as well as PR, because it will show how people react to the recent political turmoil in Perak.

Besides, there are rumours that representative for Bukit Selambau, V. Arumugam has quitted his seat.  Advisor to PKR, Anwar Ibrahim, is expected to make the announcement on this matter later.

Just wait and see, there will be more unexpected 'excitement' from BN and PR.
