Time to Voice Out Your Choice

A slightly out dated good news to share. I have managed to convince ‘1’ friend to go for registration as voter.

You might want to say, what so happy about it? 1 person only mah.. some more, what’s so important to register as voter?

Well, if you are already registered, congratulations. You have the right to choose who to be the next government; or you may choose not to choose anyone.

Else, you don’t even have a chance to choose whether you want to choose or not in the election. You need to register yourself to be eligible to choose. That’s what my friend who just came back from overseas after many years of working didn’t realise, even she still remain as Malaysian citizen.

To register as voter in Malaysia is not tough though. There is talk that why not just let whoever Malaysian with valid IC to, automatically be eligible to vote. That’s another big topic to talk about which I don’t want to discuss now.

I just mean to tell you that you can just go to any post office, request for a form. The form is easy enough to fill in. After that, submit the form to the post office officer together with your IC. They will key in your details and give you back a carbon copy of the form to you for record. That’s it. Nothing complicated.

After a few months, (yes, that takes months for them to process), check your status on SPR official website. http://www.spr.gov.my/.

The next election could be coming anytime soon. We just can’t predict it just like we don’t know when we are going to die. Under the sun only our PM that maybe know when to declare the general election. So do it as soon as you pass by any post office.
