Penang Front Party
Penang Front Party (PFP) is a Penang-based-opposition party in Malaysia.[1] The party was originally founded in 2016 with Zahidi Zainul Abidin, the UMNO lawmaker as an advisor, and revived a few months later by Patrick Ooi.[2] As the name suggests, it contested several seats in the then-opposition held state during the Malaysia General Election 2018 but also sent a candidate to Kuala Lumpur.[3] However, they failed in their maiden electoral venture with all their candidates having lost their deposits.
