The polls watchdog questions the legitimacy of the election results due to purported electoral fraud.
PETALING JAYA: Election watchdog Bersih has decided to withhold recognition of the new government amidst various reports of alleged electoral fraud in the just-concluded 13th general election.
“We have received many reports of electoral fraud in the GE13. Until a fact-finding mission is completed, we are withholding recognition of the new government,” Bersih co-chairperson S Ambiga said at a press conference here today.
Ambiga added that a people’s panel for the fact-finding mission will be set up in a week’s time. The panel will consist of election experts.
She also called for the boycott of mainstream media such as the New Straits Times, The Star, Berita Harian and Utusan Malaysia.
“We urge people to boycott them as they have lent their hand to the fraudulence that has been perpetrated on the rakyat.
“We also urge the rakyat to wear black in the next one month in protest of the electoral fraud,” said Ambiga.
