Terengganu can be considered one of the true swing states in the country. For decades now, the state has flipped between UMNO and PAS, with no political party managing to hold onto power for more than a term. In the run-up to the upcoming state elections, we speak to Dato’ Tengku Hassan Tengku Omar, Exco in Terengganu – Chairman, Terengganu State Committee For Trade, Industry, Regional Development and Administration Wellbeing. 

We discuss the state government’s economic vision, job creation in Terengganu and dealing with UMNO’s legacy of mismanagement in the state.
