(The Star) - Voters overseas may cast their ballot papers at the respective Malaysian missions on April 28, said the Election Commission (EC).
EC secretary Datuk Kamaruddin Mohamed Bariasaid those in Britain and Australia could collect and return their ballot papers at the Malaysian missions in London and Melbourne, respectively, between 9am and 8pm that day.
“Malaysians in other countries may do the same from 9am to 6pm at the respective missions abroad.
“The EC allowed the Malaysian missions in London and Melbourne to have an extra two hours compared to those in other countries because these places recorded over 1,000 postal voters,” he said in a statement here yesterday.
The voters, he said, must be present at the Malaysian missions and produce their identity cards or passports when collecting the ballot papers.
“The ballot papers will not be given to those who do not have identification documents with them. Relatives or representatives are also not allowed to collect them on the voters' behalf,” said Kamaruddin.
He said the voters would be given an envelope containing the ballot paper.
“Marked ballot papers will then be dropped in the overseas postal voting bag. They will then be brought back to Malaysia on the same day to be handed over to the returning officers of the respective constituencies,” he said.
Kamaruddin said that should the voters collect or return their ballots after the stipulated time on April 28, they would have to cover the cost of returning the papers to their respective returning officer.
Malaysians abroad may check if their postal voting application have been approved and other information by visiting the EC website atwww.spr.gov.my beginning this Friday.
