Abdul Aziz Bari, opposition leader in the outgoing Perak state assembly, originally considered running in Tambun himself but is now relieved that PKR president Anwar Ibrahim will lead the charge.<br /><br />“He’s Pakatan Harapan’s number one with the calibre and charisma to attract the voters.<br /><br />“I was there initially as leader of the state opposition and I noticed there was no one working on the ground; so when he came, it was indeed a relief for me and now I can focus on the state,” Aziz told Malaysiakini.
