Some Famous People called Gooi Leung
Gooi Hsiao Leung
Gooi Hsiao Leung ( born 28 December 1972) is a Malaysian politician. He is the incumbent Penang State Legislative Assemblyman for Bukit Tengah and also the former Member of the Parliament of Malaysia for the Alor Setar constituency in the state of Kedah, Malaysia for one term (2013-2018). He is a member of the People's Justice Party (PKR) in the Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition.
Gooi's passion for Malaysian politics has been life-long. From a young age he followed his father, Gooi Hock Seng, former DAP Member of Parliament and State Assemblyman, through multiple election campaigns in the 80s and 90s. This instilled in Gooi his strong desire for change, equality, good governance and a true democracy in Malaysia through a robust Opposition.
Before his political career, Gooi pursued his passion for human rights defending clients both locally and overseas, where he worked for the United Nations at the Special Panels and Serious Crimes Unit in East Timor.
A lawyer by profession, Gooi contested the Alor Setar parliamentary seat at the 2008 general election, but lost to the seat's long-serving incumbent, Chor Chee Heung of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA), by 184 votes. He recontested the seat in the 2013 general election. Amid a nationwide swing away from Barisan Nasional coalition parties, such as the MCA, in urban areas, Gooi unseated Chor by 1,873 votes.
In the 2018 general election, Gooi contested for the Bukit Tengah state seat of the Penang State Legislative Assembly instead and won it in a five-corner fight.
