Commissioners must stay


THE Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0) disagrees with former deputy chairman of the Election Commission (EC) Datuk Wan Ahmad Wan Omar who urged the current EC chairman Datuk Azhar Azizan Harun and other commissioners to resign because there has been a change in the government.

For the record, the EC is a Constitutional body with the chairperson and other commissioners appointed by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong in accordance with Article 114(1) of the federal Constitution. EC members only cease to hold office if they attain 66 years old or are fired by the King.
