TWAS A REAL GOOD "GOOD FRIDAY" YESTERDAY.

SURE it was. Hawkeye and I took Mr & Mrs Lim to register as voters at the Old Klang Road Post Office. All done in just 10 minutes.



Voting, unlike protest rallies which are always being tear-gassed and water cannoned, would be a better way to influence changes in this country. If you do not like the government of the day, vote them out.

The Election Commission reported that 15.47 million Malaysians are above 21 years of age are eligible to vote in federal and state elections.
Do you know that 4.4 million Malaysians over the age of 21 have not yet registered as voters? Of these, 787,000 are in Selangor.
Are you amongst the 4.4 million eligible but as yet unregistered to vote? Do you know of someone who can but hasn't yet registered? Register now and get every unregistered voter you know to do the same. It is your right and your responsibility.
However, only 11.08 million (72%) have taken the trouble to register as voters.
This means that 4.39  million (28%) eligible electors have opted to forfeit their right to vote in the event a general election is held.

WHAT IS MEANT BY THE REGISTRATION OF ELECTORS ?
The Registration of Electors, as provided for under the law, enables qualified Malaysian citizens to register as electors. The registration is carried out throughout the year. In addition it allows the Registered Electors who have changed their address to register at the new place of residence. Electors are also encouraged to check their names in the verified Electoral Rolls.

WHY DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER ?

To secure your right to vote in an election and exercise your right as a citizen.

WHO IS A QUALIFIED VOTER?

- A Malaysian citizen
- Has attained 21 years of age
- Is residing in any Election Constituency in Malaysia; and
- Has not been disqualified.

HOW TO REGISTER ?

- Go personally to the Registration Centre or Post Office.
- Take along your MyKad
- Ensure Form A is correctly filled by the staff before signing the form; and
- Keep one copy of the form as proof of your registration.

WHERE CAN YOU REGISTER ?

Election Commission of Malaysia Headquarters OR State Election Offices
OR
All Post Offices with computer facilities in the country;
NOT CERTAIN WHETHER YOU ARE A REGISTERED VOTER OR IF YOU ARE STILL ON THE ELECTORAL ROLE. (There are sufficient proof that your name is in some out of state constituencies)

Go to the Election Commission of Malaysia Electoral Roll Checking website
and punch in your IC No: for a quick check ...

Syabas Uncle Zorro.

We must think of a way to prevent the election commision from saying "nama u tak ade di senarai aku" when voter walks into the election center comes GE13.

You know BN being a pengecut will play foul and deny voters in areas where they know they will lose.

how uncle?

There is a alot of magic involved. voter registration is an exercise in futility if cheating by the EC is not resolved.There is a alot of magic involved. voter registration is an exercise in futility if cheating by the EC is not resolved. I have checked wit the service numbers located in myDirectory, many more cases similar. Scroll down, in the directory where there are service numbers. Most are ex servicemen. Just copy their service numbers, some are converted to Chinese and some to females too!!
