PKR and former deputy prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin launched their joint 1 Malaysia Dalam Bahaya (The whole of Malaysia in danger) roadshow last night in Sabak Bernam, a semi-rural Malay majority constituency in the northern tip of Selangor.

PKR vice-president Shamsul Iskandar Md Akin said the event was held there to enlighten rural and semi-urban people, especially the Malays, about the scandals surrounding 1MDB.

However, the turnout at the Sabak Bernam mini-stadium was tepid, with only about 400 people showing up, barely filling up the venue, which was decked with a custom stage and two big screens showing the speakers.

Nevertheless, the crowd was an enthusiastic one, with those huddled on the grass near the stage responding to banter from the speakers, which included DAP Sekinchan assemblyperson Ng Suee Lim, PKR Youth deputy chief Dr Afif Bahardin and PKR vice-president Tian Chua.
