Popularly known as 'Sabah taiko' by some within the Chinese community, the 52-year-old SAPP president has not ruled himself out as a candidate for the Batu Sapi by-election, saying he was now entitled to contest as the disqualification period due to an election offence had expired.
The other possible candidates from SAPP are party secretary-general Richard Yong and central liaison committee member for Karamunting, Poon Kee Yang.
Yong (second from left in pic) was disqualified in 2001 from contesting for five years due to a 1999 election billboard offence.
