Come to BERSIH gathering tomorrow


For those of you who may not know, The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (BERSIH) will hold a mass rally on 10 November (Saturday), at 3 pm at Dataran Merdeka to press for electoral reform. A memorandum will subsequently be submitted to His Majesty Yang Dipertuan Agong.

This latest citizen action organized by BERSIH demonstrates the growing public demand for the four immediate actions necessary to reform our flawed electoral process:
(a) a thorough cleanup of the electoral roll;
(b) the use of indelible ink to prevent multiple voting;
(c) the abolition of postal voting for military and police personnel;
(d) fair access to the mass media for all parties.

The memorandum to be submitted to HM Yang DiPertuan Agong will outline both the immediate and long-term reforms needed in the Malaysian election process including the adherence of a "one-person, one-vote" principle.
Daulat Tuanku!
