Opposition Leader Ismail Sabri today hit out at Pakatan Harapan for alleged "vote-buying" ahead of the Tanjung Piai by-election despite excuses from its leaders to justify that the allocations announced for the constituency were merely a coincidence.

Rubbishing the justifications, Ismail Sabri said the Harapan government had one and a half years to announce whatever allocations they wanted, and questioned why it is only doing so now.
