EC urges candidates' agents make fair reports
SEPANG, May 7 (Bernama) -- The Election Commission (EC) has urged the candidates' agents on duty on polling day for the 14th General Election (GE14) to submit fair reports to their parties on the election process.
EC chairman Tan Sri Mohd Hashim Abdullah said there were too many issues which had gone viral on the social media on the election process when it is actually being monitored by the agents who have been appointed by the candidates and their political parties.
"Such as on early voting day on May 5, there were many things which went viral, so I urge the agents to provide their respective parties with the correct information on the election process at the places they have been stationed. Do not make up stories.
"If the political parties feel there is a problem at a particular place, they can contact their agents for confirmation," he told reporters after welcoming international observers at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) here today.
He said these agents, who are on duty during the elections, play a very important role as they are people who are loyal to their respective parties.
