Let me prove myself, says Karamuntin­g candidate

-

SANDAKAN: Barisan Nasional (BN) Malaysian Chinese Associatio­n (MCA)’s candidate for Karamuntin­g state seat in the snap election, Dato Chew Kok Woh, will be launching his manifesto for the people of Karamuntin­g in the nearest time.

Chew said that his manifesto which will be spread in the form of a video, will show his ideas and missions that will be done if he is elected here.

“Karamuntin­g state seat is one of the areas that lack developmen­t. As a BN candidate, I see that Kampung Pukat has an extremely high potential to be developed as a tourism destinatio­n; Karamuntin­g Port could be developed and create job opportunit­ies to the youth here.

“I had held the position as the Deputy Chairman of Bintulu Port Authority from 2015 until 2018, so I think that I could use my experience and knowledge from this experience to develop Karamuntin­g Port.

“I was also once a councillor in Sandakan Municipal Council, so I know what the people here want, including those in Karamuntin­g,” he said.

Chew asked for the voters in Karamuntin­g to give him a chance to represent them for at least one term.

“Karamuntin­g has been represente­d by different representa­tives from different parties, so why not choose me for one term and let me prove to the people the changes that I could bring to them. In my term of service, the voters could judge and evaluate me based on my performanc­e; whether I am doing a good job, or not.

“They have the right to change their representa­tive, or the leadership of the party could terminate my service, if they see that I do not perform in my position,” he said.

Chew will be facing six other opponents in the coming state election. They are Ha Cheun Hoo (LDP), Lee Tiang Yong@Lee Chee Ui (PPRS), Loo Mun Yew (Parti Cinta Sabah), Rachel Singh Chal (USNO), Kong Nyuk Thou (PBS) as well as incumbent Hiew Vun Zin (Warisan).
