Bersih- We recommend EC to be given more power to enforce election law
- 5 years ago
In light of the high number of election offences committed in the Cameron Highlands by-election, electoral reform NGO Bersih has suggested that the EC be given the power to issue fines for minor offences.
Speaking at a press conference today, Bersih chairperson Thomas Fann urged that the Election Offences Act 1954 be reformed to allow the EC to enforce some of its provisions.
