The Election Commission (EC) has agreed to implement seven out of 10 proposals presented by the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC), in the coming 13th general election, said EC Chairman Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof.
The remaining three which involved non-resident voters, absentee voters abroad and changing of registration areas were still being studied, he said.
“The seven proposals which would be implemented for the 13th General Election are the use of indelible ink; early voting by police and armed forces and their spouses; extending the electoral roll display from seven to 14 days; abolishing the objection process and withdrawal period for candidates; cleaning up of the electoral roll; and strengthening the Election Commission,” said Abdul Aziz.
