Remap seats to resolve voter imbalances, say MPs


PETALING JAYA: Several MPs are calling for a long-overdue review of Malaysia’s parliamentary boundaries, warning that decades of population growth in urban constituencies have created huge imbalances in voter representation.

Pasir Gudang MP Hasan Karim said that since the last redelineation, which increased parliamentary seats in 2003-2004, the number of voters in many constituencies has grown significantly, raising concerns over equity and a heavier workload for MPs.
