GEORGE TOWN (Bernama): DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng has conceded that DAP would face a stiff fight in the Cameron Highlands by-election on Jan 26. Lim, who is also Finance Minister, said the advantage would definitely be on the side of MIC as it had held the parliamentary seat for a long time. “Although the advantage is on the side of MIC, we will endeavour to create history by winning the Cameron Highlands seat so that the people can experience sustainable economic and development results. “We don't solely want development, we want sustainable development, specifically in a green area like Cameron Highlands,” he told reporters after launching the Bukit Gelugor Customs Housing Lift Upgrading Project here Tuesday. The Election Commission (EC) on Dec 28 confirmed that Sivarraajh who was MIC vice-president was not qualified to contest in the by-election.
