Do not undermine the democratic process


THE Election Commission (EC) has announced that the 12th Sarawak state election will take place on Dec 18, with nomination day taking place on Dec 6, and early voting being held on Dec 14.

The civil society organisation Platform for Reform (Sarawak Chapter) is shocked at the drastic spike in flight ticket prices, whether from Peninsular Malaysia to Sarawak or Sabah to Sarawak. Airlines should consider and understand the burden and difficulties faced by Sarawakians who want to return to their home state for the elections. Exorbitant ticket prices will make it almost impossible to travel to Sarawak to vote.
