I interned with Wong Chen, the Member of Parliament for Subang during the historic time of GE14, Malaysia's 14th General Election. It was the year where the opposition party (where I interned) booted out the incumbent government who has been ruling for 61 years. I was in the organizational team that won the P104 Subang Jaya parliamentary seat under Wong Chen. We handled the logistics of PACA (Polling Agent Counting Agent) for multiple constituencies, ran social media campaigns to connect with voters while consistently supporting our constituents through community work. As a good writer, I was also tasked with editing and writing the campaign materials. Later on, Wong Chen hired me to be his personal scriptwriter for his upcoming book, where he taught me the topics of public policy and we shared ideas on governance and democracy. Some of my key highlights includes:• Collaborated with an eight-man team that won the Subang Jaya parliamentary seat for Malaysia’s 14th General Election by the third-largest majority of 92,353 votes.• Identified key districts by racial and income profiles then formulated a winning campaign strategy together with the team. • Analysed road traffic volume and patterns using Google Maps to determine strategic locations to place campaign banners.• Creative marketing skills capitalising on current trends, garnering 1000 Instagram followers within the first week of creation.
