KEADILAN Elections: Securtiy Features And Electoral Procedures

Posted: 07 Nov 2010 01:19 AM PST

MEDIA STATEMENT
7 November 2010

KEADILAN views with gravity allegations that PKR election ballots are for sale and as many as 1000 ballots can be purchased from last week's elections and reused this week. An online news site claim that next weeks ballot papers are already available and circulating.

KEADILAN will like to inform all KEADILAN members and candidates that the ballot papers for the past week cannot be used this week or the next two weeks. All ballot papers have the following security features:

1. Ballot papers for the following contested positions have serial numbers:
Deputy President, Vice President, Women Chief, Deputy Women Chief, Vice Women Chief, Youth Chief, Deputy Youth Chief &Vice Youth Chief. The 20 positions in each of the three Excos have up to 132 candidates and are in a booklet format.

2. All ballot papers need to be stamped by Election Officers at the division level just prior to giving them out to eligible voters. Any ballot paper without that stamp will not be valid.

3. Each week's ballot papers will be printed on different colored papers. This coloured code will not be known to any of the Election Officers until the day of the election. Therefore the impression created that that ballot papers can be reused or recycled is completely untrue.

4. During the election process, candidates for the Deputy President, Women Chief and Youth Chief positions can register their representatives to observe the entire process with the Chief Election Officer – this totals a minimum of 8 representatives from the 8 candidates as election monitors. ALL candidates can register their representatives as counting agents for the positions they are contesting who are allowed to be present to observe the counting of the ballot paper. These electoral procedures can be downloaded from the KEADILAN website.

5. Each Election officers will fill up a tallying sheet which must be signed by him and also the candidates representatives. The said tallying sheet contains the results, the number ballot papers issued, number of votes casted and number of spoilt votes. Many of the candidates in particular those running for the deputy president's position had appointed their representatives both to observe as well as counting agents practically at all divisions. Such agents were actually present through out the whole process and signed the said tallying sheets.

My Response To Haris Ibrahim

Posted: 07 Nov 2010 01:16 AM PST

There comes a time when it is impossible for me to stay quiet while our party’s electoral process is being undermined and condemned. When I became a founding member of PKN and served on its inaugural MPT, I had to withstand the fierciest opposition which led to my withdrawal from holding office in several Christian-based bodies. I did so to serve the wider interest of the nation and society at large. Ironically, I have since found that having come into the political arena, there have been times when I could not speak out on matters of personal conscience as much as I have envisaged. Having accepted the request to serve on the Lembaga Disiplin, it could now be argued that I should not comment on the ongoing party elections process. However, I do so now to respond to the severely provocative postings on The People’s Parliament. I am but an ordinary human being who can only stand provocation to a certain extent. But that line has been crossed too many times. So this is my reply to Haris Ibrahim on his blog. It awaits moderation but I will not wait for man or beast. You know me. From the beginning, I have been committed and pledged to the cause of KeAdilan. I have not nor do I ask for any position or incentive. You can count on my readiness to resign any appointment the party has made involving me. But this I must say no matter how public it becomes. Thank you for your kind understanding. Goh KP

“While the wishes and sentiments about what this website may promote re championing a so-called third-force and one of the major candidates for the PKR deputy presidency is legitmate, etc., the blackening of the latter's major rival for the party post is unbecoming. You have raised questions re the PKR leadership as well as Azmin Ali and that is your prerogative. But the naming of a major candidate for the party position solely on the basis that your informant said so as per your report- "I asked if he knew who was behind this.

Without hesitation, he named Azmin, aided, he said, by the party HQ secretariat, and certain members of the central election committee…" is a mere allegation which I do not find substantiated anywhere in your posting.

Do you mean to say that you of all people will entertain such a report in itself as self-evident. What if someone else gives you a call this day and when you meet him, by day or night, he says that this is the doing of Zaid Ibrahim (meaning he sent that other informant to blame the existence of spare ballot papers on Azmin Ali)? Are you or I or anyone else upon such a claim alone free to "expose" Zaid Ibrahim for resorting to such dastardly act? It will be monumentally unfair to ZI as it is to AA that any man or woman out there can just say the word and it is taken as the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Which one of us will be safe from this kind of "evidence"? And to expose any of the major contestants of a high office of a party when the electoral process is still going on and so many other divisions are yet to cast their votes is, I am sorry to say, unfair and unjust. If indeed there are all these numbers of ballot forms hanging around, by all means say so as you have done but surely there are ways and means to investigate such an allegation and even contest the results of such investigations, etc.

But how is it democratic or an act of political reform that we accuse and name a perpetrator simply because his name was pronounced? You are my brother and friend regardless of our common cause or otherwise. But because of who you are, a whole chorus of readers have simply accepted such an allegation to be true. Can this be right? Is this the new politics we want? I beg your kind pardon for this my input to this ongoing debate.

Thank you. Warmly, Goh Keat Peng”
