THE Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0) refers to the statement issued by the Election Commission (EC) on Sept 3 that sought to clarify issues relating to #Undi18. These include lowering of the voting age to 18 from 21 (Undi18), lowering of eligibility age to be a election candidate to 18, and implementation of automatic voter registration.
Bersih 2.0 welcomes the clarification by the EC, which was comprehensive and honest in detailing the various considerations that are needed before #Undi18 can be implemented, by EC’s estimation, between 18 and 24 months from now. Nonetheless, Bersih 2.0 is of the view that the registration of those who have turned 18 can be and should be carried out as soon as possible using the existing registration process of filling out Form A at EC offices, post offices, appointed assistant registration officers and online at mysprdaftar.spr.gov.my
