Cameron Highland by election

The Cameron Highland by election is gong to be interesting. For the first time after after four earlier by elections, BN is the incumbent. The question is can PH wrest this seat from BN. Looking at the results of the 2018 election, it was a close fight then. However, things are very much different now. PH is the government. BN is the opposition. In the four earlier by elections, PH retained their seats easily despite low voter turnout. Can BN do the same with theirs? My earlier thinking was that PH will win hands down but BN came out with a surprise. Their candidate is an orang asli. With orang asli making up 22% of the population, that is a good strategy but it can also backfire. Traditionally, orang asli has been BN supporters. So maybe it will not make much difference. Instead other races like the Indians, might feel alienated as before, the candidates has always been from their race. BN also has a new leader who is much more focus and knows what he is doing unlike the previous one who was going everywhere but nowhere. So, this might be an additional factor.
