KUALA LUMPUR, April 1 — Rapper-turned-producer Syed Ahmad Abdul Rahman Alhadad or Altimet said today he joined PKR to work towards giving his children a better nation.

“So from the time I kept looking into myself and prioritising myself, now I feel is the time, or the longer I go through life, it is more important that I think of others, about my children.

“That’s why I am more alert on the latest happenings in the country and others,” said the 42-year-old who joined Gombak PKR.

“I think about what kind of Malaysia that I want to leave for our children, because my father left a peaceful and prosperous Malaysia. What am I going to give my children. That’s why I’m here,” he said to thunderous applause from a packed audience here, at the Flamingo Hotel By the Lake.
