Johor DAP head Liew Chin Tong, in a briefing for party members in Bakri and Muar, urged them to help return former Bersatu Youth chief Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman (above) as the Muar MP during the next general election even though he is not from the same party as them.

"I also told Bakri and Muar DAP grassroots leaders that in the event of a snap election, while fighting to secure our Bakri (parliamentary) and Bentayan (state) seats, we must also do everything within our ability to ensure that our closest ally Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman is returned as MP for Muar," he said in a statement on Facebook.
