当地美食比喻政绩，槟希盟发动首波宣传

尽管后天才正式进入大选竞选期，但朝野已按捺不住，纷纷启动宣传战。在槟州处于守土地位的希盟率先发挥创意，推出一系列的本地传统美食图，比拟槟州政府的良好施政和政绩。

希盟领袖和一些准候选人昨天起已陆续转载有关图片。

此外，《当今大马》记者发现，有关图片也被制成大型看板竖立在路旁。

根据巴当拉浪候选人章瑛的脸书专页，这一系列的美食图共有6款，其中一款同时展现2种美食，分别为叻沙、炒粿条、椰浆饭、煎蕊、椰水、罗惹（rojak）和青鱼。（pasembur）。

第一款写说“就像槟城叻沙是世界闻名美食；槟城是享誉东盟的最干净城市”、第二款的图说是“吃炒粿条就好，不要吃钱；国际组织赞扬槟城最廉洁。”

第三款写说“槟城虽小，但和椰浆饭一样好料；外资最高，债务最低”、第四款的图说是“槟城，就像煎蕊一样清新绿意”。

第五款写说“椰水清甜又便宜；槟州好水全国便宜”，最后一款的图说则是“就像rojak和pasembur；槟州各族人民和谐共处”。

由行动党构思制作

虽然宣传品都一律印上公正党标志，而难分究竟是由哪个希盟成员党所制作，惟槟行动党组织秘书黄汉伟证实，这是行动党构思的首波宣传策略，暂时只有中文和马来文，接下来会有其他语文。

他接受《当今大马》访问时说，有关大型看板主要置放在行动党的选区，但由于槟城面积不大而友党的选区就在毗邻，相信民众都会发现。

他解释，该党是基于几个因素挑选美食为第一波的主题。

“槟城本身是美食天堂，这些美食具有草根性和多样性、而足以引起各界共鸣和带出他们要传达的讯息。”

挂“人民万岁”横幅

国阵早在3月期间就开启海报战，在槟威两地开始张贴一款数落看守槟首长林冠英执政10年来，违反51项承诺的海报。同时，也在4家中文报刊登一则主题相似的广告。

该款海报共有几种语文版本，图片印着林冠英的肖像，配上水灾、山坡开发和高楼发展的照片。

由于没事先申请准证，槟威两个市政局之后发出罚款给槟国阵。

随着距离提名日越来越近，槟国阵也像其他地区一样在各地悬挂党旗和印有“国阵，人民万岁”字眼的横幅。

GEORGE TOWN: DAP sprang a major surprise by fielding incumbent Air Itam assemblyman Wong Hon Wai to contest the Bukit Bendera parliamentary constituency, with incumbent Zairil Khir Johari moving over to contest the Tanjung Bungah state seat.

Wong, who is the political secretary to caretaker Chief Minister and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng, was previously a two-term assemblyman in Air Itam.

Guan Eng will remain in his Air Putih state seat while Penang DAP Youth deputy head Chris Lee Chun Kit will contest the Pulau Tikus state seat.

Both Zairil and Lee were schoolmates at the St Xavier's Institution school here.

State DAP chairman Chow Kon Yeow made the announcement at the DAP Bukit Bendera service centre in Tanjung Tokong today.

The seat in Bukit Bendera would be among the most watched in the 14th general election because over recent discontentment.

Firstly, Tanjung Bungah incumbent Teh Yee Cheu quit DAP following disagreements over his suggestions for term limits for the chief minister and his vocal criticism on development that he felt was harmful to the environment in Penang.

Meanwhile, the incumbent for Pulau Tikus, Yap Soo Huey opted to quit politics to focus on her studies.

Natural disaster then wreaked havoc in the state, first a landslide in Tanjung Bungah in October 2017, and then the Nov 4, 2017 floods which almost submerged the whole state.

The landslide in Tanjung Bungah claimed the lives of 11, including that of one Malaysian.

The two-term assemblyman will fill the parliamentary seat earlier represented by Zairil Khir Johari.

Air Itam assemblyman Wong Hon Wai is eagerly looking forward to his duties as MP after GE14.

GEORGE TOWN: Incumbent Air Itam assemblyman Wong Hon Wai said he is ready to leave the state assembly for Parliament, in what he described as the next big leap for him in his political career.

He has been named the Bukit Bendera parliamentary candidate for DAP, replacing incumbent Zairil Khir Johari, who is contesting the Tanjung Bungah state seat.

Wong, 45, who is the Penang chief minister’s political secretary, said he wants to introduce legislative reforms in Parliament as well as draft policies for better housing.

“I am ready to take on duties in Parliament and introduce better reforms for a better Malaysia,” he said when met at the Tanjong Bungah DAP service centre here today.

Wong has served as state assemblyman for two terms since 2008 and is currently Penang DAP organising secretary. He was also formerly a state executive councillor for housing and the arts.

Before entering politics, he was a systems engineer at a multinational factory in Bayan Lepas, before taking up a degree in law in 2006.

The Bukit Bendera seat was won by Zairil in the last polls with a 32,778-vote majority. He defeated Gerakan’s Teh Leong Meng.

The population there is mostly made up of Chinese (74%), followed by the Malays (14%), Indians (11%) and others (1%).

In the fourth quarter 2017 electoral roll, there were 71,767 voters for the Bukit Bendera seat. In the 2013 polls, there were 71,085 voters.

Pulau Tikus candidate

Meanwhile, DAP’s candidate for Pulau Tikus Chris Lee Chun Kit is eager to engage his voters to discuss how to improve the neighbourhood and standard of living.

The 36-year-old Penang Island City Council member said his community-based focus would address traffic congestion in the area.

“It will be an honour to serve as the elected representative for Pulau Tikus,” he said when met by reporters after his candidacy was announced by the party leadership.

Lee was previously a business communication and English language lecturer before beginning work as a publicity executive at the Penang DAP headquarters in 2011.

In 2013, he was appointed Penang Island City Council councillor.

Pulau Tikus incumbent Yap Soo Huey had previously announced that she would not be contesting in the coming election as she is furthering her studies in the United States.

She won the seat with an 8,220-vote majority, beating Gerakan’s Rowena Yam in the last polls. The population there is predominantly Chinese (78%), followed by Malays (12%), Indians (8%) and others (2%).

The total registered voters in the Q4 2017 electoral roll is 17,825, a slight reduction compared with 17,936 voters in the 2013 polls.
