Tian Chua eyes Parliament comeback, open to contesting Batu again
The PKR veteran says he still has the energy to serve as an MP and that Batu constituents want him back.
Tian Chua, a veteran PKR politician who previously served as the MP for Batu, is considering a return to Parliament. He expressed his desire to contest Batu again, citing strong support from the constituency, though the final decision would be up to the party leadership. Tian Chua, 62, was barred from defending the Batu seat in the 2018 general election after his nomination was rejected due to a RM2,000 court fine.
He has since maintained a strong connection with the community and has been backed by constituents for his return. Tian Chua's ultimate goal is to ensure that PKR becomes a permanent political force, similar to established parties in Western democracies, and to leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
