Politics is pointless, says Pulai voter on eve of polling

The tie-up between former rivals Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional “is the government’s business, we are just here to vote”, says a resident.

For cendol seller Ali Baba Bacha Maidin there were far more important issues than the Umno president being granted a discharge, bringing to a halt a four-year-long trial on charges of corruption, embezzlement and abuse of power.‘It’s something that we have to deal with on our own. There’s no point getting into politics. We can say all we want, but it’s pointless,” the 54-year old told FMT.

“That’s the government’s business. We are just here to vote. We couldn’t care less about politics,” said Ali.For him, Putrajaya’s announcement that they wanted to repair toilets and the run-down schools buildings was music to his ears.Another constituent who did not wish to be identified said the outcome of Zahid’s trial did not affect her support for PH.

Zahid was recently granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal on all 47 charges involving corruption, criminal breach of trust and money laundering.
