Early voting starts today in the state elections for approximately 97 thousand Malaysians, mainly those serving in Armed Forces and Police. The remaining 5 days of campaigning will see intensified efforts to entice voters to the ballot box - with ceramahs and tik tok platforms thrown in the mix. We speak with Thomas Fann, Chairperson, Bersih for his observations on the election campaign, why your vote matters, and his expectations for turnout this Saturday.
