The Ipoh
Timor (P64) seat consists of the state seats of
Canning, Pasir Puteh and Tebing Tinggi.
The
parliament candidate for GE14 this year is Wong Kah Woh formerly the state
representative of Canning. Wong is replaced by Jenny Cheng who until recently
was his political secretary.
The former
MP for Ipoh Timor was Thomas Su Keong Siong who has now been tasked to stand in
the parliamentary seat of Kampar.
Tebing Tinggi
formerly was represented by Ong Boon Piow but he has been replaced by constitutional
law expert Dr Abdul Razak Bari. Ong will now go to Bercham.
According to
statement on Wong’s Fb page Tebing Tinggi has become a 57% Malay majority seat
after the re-delineation and presumably the reason why Dr Aziz Bari replaced
Ong.
The only one
that has remained unchanged is Howard Lee for Pasir Pinji.
I like the
set up here. Wong, Jenny as well as Howard are young and as for Dr Aziz Bari he
is a logical and practical choice.
As for Thomas
and Ong it’s starting out again going for their
walkabouts to meet their constituents.

the mood for the night.
"The swinging sixties' was the theme for the night
“This is a rich legacy, being a Honda car
dealer for 50 years, starting since the revolutionary swinging sixties" said Datuk Lim Si Boon, the Director of Ban Hoe Seng Auto.
'Through that
time the Honda Civic has changed through several generations of models but one
thing that has not changed was its people.
Our success
in the 1st year has been due to the unending advice and support of
Uncle Ignatius Chew, Auntie Pauline, Florence and Richard Chew. They have been
showing us the ropes and have been guiding us all along”
Token of Appreciation for (L-R) Richard Chew, Florence Chew, Pauline Chew and Ignatius Chew from Datuk Lim Si Boon.
