The Kota Siputeh state seat, held by Umno assemblyperson Abu Hasan Sarif in Kedah, is declared vacant by the High Court today, following an application by Kedah Speaker Dr Abdul Isa Ismail, as reported by Malaysiakini.
Abdul Isa had filed the suit against the Election Commission after it had overruled his decision to declare the seat vacant following Abu Hasan’s two consecutive absence from state assembly sitting.
No, it’s not that we do not have had enough of by-election yet.
But, what to do, when you’ve an Umno assemblyman who is not interested to attend the state assembly sitting, the best choice is to go back to the people to determine the person who is fit, responsible and ready to represent the rakyat.
Also, you might want to start questioning the ineffective Election Commission (EC) who is supposed to act and react independently without taking sides, however, based on the latest ruling, it’s very obvious that something is very wrong with the decision by the EC chairman Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof early last month.
The keyword: The commission acted illegally!
Meanwhile, let’s get ready for the 10th by-election, wherever you’re.
