Wan Ahmad Farid the best candidate, says Ahmad Shabery Cheek

SG LEMBING, PAHANG, SUN:

Deputy Home Minister Senator Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid is by far the best candidate to contest the Kuala Terengganu by-election said Information Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek.

He said the choice of Wan Farid by the Barisan Nasional will also see the coalition retain the seat which it won in the 2008 general election.

Ahmad Shabery is confident that the BN will better this time around in the by-election.

The seat fell vacant following the death of deputy education minister Datuk Razali Ismail on Nov. 28.
