With the 15th General Election (GE15) nearing, candidates have come forward with their manifestos and promises for the rakyat. However, one particular candidate took things to a whole new level.

Lim Lip Eng, a lawyer and candidate for Pakatan Harapan, is in the running for the Kepong parliamentary seat. Unlike many others, he decided to take a different route in his political campaign by tweeting a poster depicting him with members of K-pop group, TWICE.
Sat beside Tzuyu while he eats a bowl of what we can assume is curry mee, the poster is a parody of him ‘collaborating’ with the global superstars for a ‘Special PRU15 Single’ titled Formula of Winning with a ‘release date’ of 19 November at 8am.
As of writing, the tweet has garnered 1,725 retweets and 2,290 likes.
Since the tweet was posted, many netizens have left amusing comments
A user said, “If it’s like this, I have to vote yes or yes,” referencing one of the group’s hit songs. Meanwhile, another user name-dropped all the hit songs in support of the candidate.

However, other users are not fully satisfied with the edited poster and told Lim to bring TWICE to Malaysia instead to earn their votes. One user even said, “I’ll vote for you if you can make arrangements so I can meet Momo.”

One user even tweeted a meme of a TWICE member holding a (fake) gun with a smile and a “Yes or Yes” text written with the caption, “Kepong voters have only two choices after seeing your name there.”
