Muda: Melanie Ting's courage to contest praised by sister

AMPANG - A small yet passionate group of Muda supporters gathered at Dewan Dato Ahmad Razali, Ampang, showing unwavering support for their candidate, Melanie Ting.

Dressed in all black, the devoted supporters chanted 'Hidup Muda' (Long Live Muda) with fervor while enthusiastically waving the Muda flag.

Their enthusiasm was directed towards Melanie Ting, who is set to contest in the Bukit Antarabangsa state legislative assembly.

Among the supporters stood Nicole Ting, Melanie's elder sister, who expressed her hope for Muda to grow stronger as a party in the future.

"I'm incredibly proud of Melanie for having the courage to contest," Nicole Ting said when asked about her younger sister.

"Standing in front of thousands of people is not an easy feat, but she has a brave heart and unwavering determination," Nicole added.

Melanie Ting, a 23-year-old law graduate, has previously served as the chief of staff at Muda's information center.

This will be her first time participating in the Selangor state polls.

In a three-cornered fight, Ting will be facing off against Sasha Lyna from Perikatan Nasional and Muhammad Kamri Kamaruddin from Pakatan Harapan, promising an intense competition for the Bukit Antarabangsa state seat.

Despite their smaller numbers, the Muda supporters demonstrated their passion and commitment, highlighting the party's growing appeal among young and energetic voters.

As the state polls approach, the competition in Bukit Antarabangsa will be closely monitored, with voters keenly observing the candidates' platforms and visions for the constituency's future.
