Aug 26 has made it into the current history of Malaysia as it marks the return of Anwar Ibrahim into Parliament after trouncing his BN opponent Arif Shah. The results are as follows:
Anwar - 31,195 votes
Arif Shah - 15,524
Hanafi, 92.
Majority - 15,671.
Voters - 58 459
Voters turnout - 47 410 or 81.1%
Racial breakdown: Malays 69.4%
Chinese 24.5%
Indians 6.0%
Others 0.1%
The win I believe would mark a new phase towards democratization and nation building in Malaysia.
