MODERATORS
I don't keep track of the 222 member so i don't personally know what he ever done, i just don't simply call people irrelevant just because they don't show up from time to time in the press, because that will render about 85% of the 222 MP irrelevant. He won against the 4 term MP in Julau and successfully defend it mean he did something right, because we all know relying on party and nepotism doesn't mean guaranteed success(Nurul Izzah). His party is new, he's the only person that hold a seat, there's nothing he can do if others just doesn't listen.
On the flip side we have Syed Saddiq, who's been quite loud on everything. Similar case, new party, one of the two who hold a seat, and people call him irrelevant as well and doesn't listen to him.
But you know who's really irrelevant?
I guess I understand what you mean when put that way, press or no press. Guess I'm just sightly surprised he is even making noise. True that, gelakan thing though. Wished we had joke parties like that here, would be interesting (maybe.. Not? Lol).
Press can be bias in a way that they only cover people and opinion who can sell the news at that time. They also can't cover all MP's voice, so this give the impression that they doesn't speak.
If you look at his FB page, he's quite busy going here and there, and also have quite a lot of opinion on things, but there's no coverage by news.
True with the press coverage bias. I'll have to take a look at his FB, hopefully there's something worthwhile. Appreciate the heads up!
