The Bersih 2.0 steering committee said Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's lament that he could not use government assets during campaigning due to curbs by the EC was not in line with international resolutions against corruption.
"Similarly, the International IDEA in its Code of Conduct for Political Parties: Campaigning in Democratic Elections urges parties not to 'use official State, Provincial, Municipal or other public resources for campaign purposes'," said Bersih 2.0 in a statement on Wednesday . He further said ministers usually worked beyond the normal office hours while the opposition faced no such restriction.
"Bersih 2.0 calls upon all stakeholders to cherish the EC's efforts even if it does inconvenience both the government and opposition parties," said Bersih 2.0.

Bersih tells ministers to take annual leave if they want to campaignBersih stresses that the EC must remain firm in its restrictions against the government. Personally, I feel this is being unnecessarily picky, noting that the Ministers work BEYOND hours. As for vehicle, most personnel In the corporate sector who're given company cars are allowed to use their vehicle regardless of company or personal duty. BERSIH is too idealistic forgetting that this is not a developed country. Mahathir is right. BERSIH is partially the reason for the 3 defeats as PH cannot canvas for votes due to restriction. If they take leave who will run the country? Bersih and Election Commission are two sides of the same useless coin. They are more concerned about defending the rights of the Opposition parties more than defending the rights of the voters.
