Campaigning for BN candidate in Duyong at 88

Published on 3 Nov 2026 10:28:11 PM

Vong Fook Hoi says his memory no longer holds what people tell him, but the 88-year-old still knows it was 1am when Duyong assemblyman Datuk Mohd Noor Helmy Abdul Halem answered his call.

He had a fever and was too weak to get out of bed. Helmy came over in his sarong, just woken up, and took him for treatment.
