It is totally outrageous when it became clear in Sep 2012 that the Election Commission has no intention whatsoever to implement overseas voting for Malaysians before the 13th General Elections, in contempt of the recommendations of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Electoral Reform (PSC). The EC Chairman and his Deputy have deliberately made empty promises to overseas Malaysians when in reality it has been thirteen months of inaction and deceit.
Malaysians in Singapore, numbering between 300,000 and 500,000 according to various sources, have no choice but to brace themselves for the long journey home in order to vote in the GE13. Hence this initiative by BERSIH Singapore, to help ease the pain of the travel for the polling day. Together we can make a better Malaysia!
For the rest of this good news, go HERE.

UMNO dogs, whether in sheep skin, thick skinned or like a guy in this blog, using a beautiful female name, Ellese, they will always be a SOB! Good on you blokes in Singapore preparing yourselves for a “preemptive strike”…. when there is a will, there is a way!

Welldone BERSIH. We however need to regularly check our status here : http://daftarj.spr.gov.my/NEWDAFTARJ/ . to prevent frauds. i.e Evil & Super Racist umno/bn puteras/puteris quietly transfering you to another constituency without your knowledge thus enabling pengundi HANTU to vote BN.
And go to polling station early.

Similar effort should probably be done here in West Malaysia considering there are always voters who may need the shared transport to go back to the north, south or east coast. Some good souls out there ?

Bersih Hong Kong, including those in China have also started an initiative to get Malaysians home to vote. We must do our part for a better Malaysia.
