So by all estimates or as they say in my hometown (lakia sengg - like the dayaks count) there are easily 2 - 3 million of us who have not bothered to register as voters. People I know have not bothered to register. And the frequent anwers in get include,
1. No time la.
2. What's my 1 vote?
(would this bunch even bother to register?)
Well well, here's news.
1. You can register to vote at any SPR or election commission office.
2. you 1 vote may be what makes or breaks a regime change in the next elections. 300k votes imagine that and there are 3 million of us who hadn't bothered to even register. And it's never too early to register. (2 day before announcing the 8th March elections or rather, the dissolution of the previous Parliament, Pat Lah said there's not gonna be an election soon) so one may be just around the corner and you won't want to miss this biggie!
This is our one democratic right that has not been stepped on by the Bien goons, the one right the still enjoy. Just ask the North Koreans or even the Hongkies how they'd die for universal suffrage which 3 million of us don't bother with. For god's sake register.
Who you vote or even if you vote is you choice and yours only!
