Mohd. Salleh
A graduate from Universiti Malaya, Mohd Salleh is self employed, previously having worked as a private school manager, a mosque official and an independent religious preacher.
Although Permatang Pasir is a PAS stronghold, but it is believed that UMNO has certain effective strategies to undermine the opposition and winning the seat.
Ironically, it does not ruled out the possibility of BN winning the seat in defending the track record in selecting the most effective strategy to manage the voters.
BN forces are believed to be well organized and have the campaign to gain the visibility and respect.
Ironically, development has long been left out in Permatang Pasir. One of strategies to be truly effective and BN has demonstrated the capacity to mainstream programming the area into the mainstream development programme.
The constituency has 20,290 voters and one postal vote, with 72.36 percent of the electorate being Malays, 25.85 percent Chinese, 1.63 percent Indians and 0.16 percent others. It has 300 new voters.
