The crowd jostled to shake hands with the artiste but Umno Youth members managed to maintain order by acting as security guards. Siti Nurhaliza told reporters that it was a new experience for her. She said that previously, such a big crowd happened only during concerts and she had never seen a similar situation in a political campaign. She admitted that she got fired up seeing people gathering to listen political speeches but stressed that she did not intend to venture into politics. -- BERNAMA SLR JR
