Never too far from home to vote


Mission fulfilled: Dinesh handing over the 103 postal ballot papers to Siti Nazatul Nadia at KLIA shortly after arriving from Bangalore, India.

PETALING JAYA: Every vote counts, which makes 103 votes especially precious – which is why Dinesh Nair travelled over 13,000km in a day just to deliver postal votes from Malaysian students in India.

The 36-year-old hopped on a Malaysia Airlines flight from Bangalore at 12.20am yesterday and arrived at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) at about 8am to hand over 103 ballot papers to Vote Malaysia representative Siti Nazatul Nadia Mohd Ridzuan – before hopping on a flight back to India that very day.
