The campaign by PAS for the Kuala Besut by-election looks to be picking up speed. Before this it was only small ceramahs at night in villages, but the event in Kampung Baharu today was more of a carnival, attracting a 500-strong crowd even before noon.

Local actress Abby Abadi also joins in the fun, auctioning a baju kurung from her collection for the party's election campaign.
