Election Observations By Foreign Media Outlets

One cannot gauge candidates populatrity in ceramahs as crowds have dropped and replaced with views on tik tok and facebook. And Kedah caretaker Menteri Besar Dato' Seri Sanusi Md Nor, Perikatan Nasional's Tik Tok champion is single handedly taking on Prime Minister Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Shannon Teoh, Malaysia Bureau Chief, The Straits Times gives his views which political narrative is winning over the voters.
