GEORGE TOWN, Aug 10 — Prominent lawyer and politician Karpal Singh’s first-ever biography “Karpal Singh — Tiger of Jelutong” will be out in bookshops soon.

According to the Bukit Gelugor MP, the book, published by Marshall Cavendish in Singapore, will be making its way to Malaysian shores soon.
“It will also be available in other countries,” he said.
The book will be officially launched in Kuala Lumpur soon.
It is already available for orders via online store Amazon and also on Marshall Cavendish’s site and is being sold at US$29.99 (RM96) online.
