GE13: Parties rev up for the polls
The guessing game on the date of the general election is still on but political parties are not waiting many have already rolled out their heavy machinery for the campaign.
For the past few months, MCA, PKR, DAP and PAS have deployed customised buses and trailers that can be converted into ceramah stages at whistle-stops nationwide.
Sporting catchy names such as People's Stability, The People's Independence Tour, Dream Machine and Welfare State, the vehicles can bring the campaigners to just about anywhere.
“It's very convenient as we can set up our ceramah stage in congested areas, such as near night markets,” said MCA Treasurer Datuk Seri Tan Chai Ho.
