MCLM Urges all Malaysians to Support the Call for Electoral Reform by Walking with Bersih 2.0


The Malaysian Civil Liberties Movement (MCLM) supports BERSIH 2.0 (Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections) and will walk with them at the BERSIH 2.0 rally, “Walk for Democracy,” which will take place on 9 July 2011.
MCLM is in complete agreement with the aims of BERSIH 2.0, which has been actively pursuing electoral reform since 2005, as well as the demands of the BERSIH 2.0 rally, namely:
●    Clean the electoral roll
●    Reform postal vote
●    Use indelible ink
●    Free and fair access to media
●    Minimum 21 days campaign period
●    Strengthen public institutions
●    Stop corruption
●    Stop dirty politics

We believe that these aims and demands should resonate strongly with the expectations of the Rakyat. Therefore, we urge the Rakyat to turn out in force to join us as we walk with BERSIH 2.0. Together, let us tell the Government and the Election Commission that we expect them to uphold fundamental principles of democracy.

HARIS M. IBRAHIM
PRESIDENT
