The much-anticipated ceramah face-off last night between PKR de facto chief Anwar Ibrahim and Ummi Hafilda Ali was a hit with the crowd, though it may not have achieved its intended objectives.
In what was seen as a tactical move to scuttle Anwar's influence on the by-election's ceramah circuit, BN announced at the 11th hour that Ummi Hafilda would be speaking at a ceramah in Rumpun Makmur - at the same time the latter would deliver his own ceramah.
