OPTIMISTIC: Martin greets his supporters sitting outside the compound of Serian Council in the presence of PBB Kedup youth chief Jofaizal Entup.
SERIAN: PBB’s new face for Kedup, Martin Ben would not underestimate his opponents, especially PKR and SNAP, but would use their discord as his main weapon to win handsomely for BN. “It is a marriage of convenience as they are fighting openly in the election. So the chance for BN to win is good. We are working extra hard to ensure BN win convincingly,” Martin told reporters at the nomination centre at Serian council office here yesterday.
He was grateful to Serian MP Datuk Richard Riot Jame who had promised to assist during the campaign period. “I am also thankful to BN party members who have been very helpful. We are fighting this battle as one party,” he said.
Martin, 49, is facing a four-cornered fight in Kedup. The other three candidates are Sylvester Belayong Jayang, 52, of SNAP, Lainus Andrew Luwak, 68, of PKR and Amin Banti, 48, an independent. Martin was earlier accompanied to the nomination centre by former Kedup assemblyman Frederick Bayoi Manggie, PBB Kedup vice chief Alexander Ganyang and PBB Kedup information chief Bernard Lanat.
