Elderly woman on stretcher, casts vote

GEORGE TOWN: Bayan Baru member of parliament Sim Tze Tzin wants voters to come out to vote.

Taking to Facebook, Sim posted a photo of an elderly woman on a stretcher.

His caption read: "Old aunty, sick. Still come out to vote although on a hospital bed.

"She is voting for the sake of her children and grandchildren.

"Have you voted? Let's vote," he said.
