Postal voters send in ballots


Done their duty: Chee Yan and Joanna were excited to cast their postal vote in the Johor elections while in Singapore.

JOHOR BARU: Some Malaysian postal voters in Singapore are turning to volunteers to send back their ballot papers, while others have no qualms paying about RM100 to courier them in time for the March 12 polls.“The whole postal registration process was quite easy. We managed to get our ballots via registered courier to our home in Singapore several days ago,” said Joanna Tan Sue Mae, 53.

“However, the cost of sending back the ballot papers via courier was almost S$70 (RM210). We managed to get in touch with some volunteers who directed us to a pick-up point where others also dropped off their ballot papers and took them back to Johor, ” Joanna said.
