KUALA LUMPUR, July 5 — The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections today criticised the Election Commission over the campaign period for six state elections on August 12, saying this could put some postal votes at risk.

“If the EC is unwilling to extend the campaign period, then we call on them to reform the postal voting system completely. “Global Bersih is also very disappointed that non-Malaysians are still not allowed to act as witnesses on postal ballot documents. The current requirement that a Malaysian citizen must sign and witness postal ballot documents has proven to be a stumbling block for many overseas Malaysians who live in areas with few or no other Malaysians.
