Historical voter turnout for all Sabah state elections (except the 2nd in 1971, where every seat was menang tanpa bertanding 😂). Given that the election during the pandemic saw 66.6% turnout, anything below 70% today would be 'bad' (although of course, there are many factors at
@TindakV2 Interestingly, Sabah 2020 might actually be a good proxy for today because everyone was behaving like the pandemic was over (ironically, this is what re-escalated things), hence not too much suppression of voter turnout (unlike Melaka 2021).

Salam sejahtera @sprgovmy Mengapa SPR tidak terbitkan peratus keluar bagi setiap DUN, memandangkan data itu sudahpun dikumpul melalui aplikasi MySPR KTM mobile? Kalau tidak tahu cara nak terbitkan set data, boleh PM saya.

If you want, you can choose to say that as a Malaysian, you don't want to listen to any non-Malaysian or non-resident regarding issues pertaining to Malaysia. However, if this is your position - something to bear in mind. The Malaysian diaspora is HUGE. Based on the UN

Let me translate this extremely diplomatic comment: As per usual, take any statement from gov patting themselves on the back with a huge handful of salt.
CONGRATS M'SIA: 1st services surplus in 14 years! But hold off on popping that champagne? 1. Surplus more to do w/ external dynamics vs fiscal discipline 2. Tourism was the heavy lifter: likely boosted by ASEAN events in 3Q? 3. One quarter’s win doesn’t make a trend :( END/

Baseline information about ALL entities registered under SSM INCLUDING beneficial ownership information should be classified as open data and made freely available, period. By keeping this information behind a paywall, SSM / KPDN are contributing (in a huge way) to the

BTW, if you're wondering why Sabah's 2nd state election had an average of just 1 candidate per seat - No, that's not a typo. Too long to explain here, but go check out the history of Sabah's 1971 state election (just after Darurat ended) - where every single seat was won

Another way of putting the data above into context: Excluding the upcoming Sabah election, there have only been 23 instances in Malaysia's entire election history where a seat was contested by 8 or more candidates. In the upcoming Sabah election ALONE, there are 40!! However,

This #PRNSabah is insane - in terms of number of candidates, it is by far the most contested in Malaysia's entire election history. 596 candidates across 73 seats, or 8.2 candidates per seat on average!! Some will say this is an indicator of 'demokrasi yang subur'. Others will

I checked out Aerotrain's record since reopening, and it is absolutely criminal that an operator of critical services can have this kind of performance. I hope MOT takes this to court and guts the contractor(s). Not just to get compensation for the havoc they caused + shame

Salam sejahtera @sprgovmy - mohon perbetulkan fakta. PRN Sabah akan datang BUKAN yg ke-17, tetapi yg ke-15. Penjelasan: 1) DUN Sabah yang akan dibentuk selepas ini adalah yang ke-17. 2) Namun, DUN Sabah pertama (1963, CM Fuad Stephens) dan kedua (1965, CM Peter Lo) dilantik

BTW, I’m not absolutely opposed to a digital ID, as there will otherwise be a lot of waste and inconvenience (for both companies and users) due to repeated eKYC. A single common solution makes sense. However, my conditions are strict: 1) Retain an offline option -

Malaysians, stop looking at things in isolation. Search for the bigger picture, especially when it comes to policies that undermine free speech and privacy - critical foundations of a democratic society. Reminder: Sedition Act (Akta Hasutan) 1948 is still in effect (though PH

BTW, if we really want to curb childhood exposure to social media It begins at home. Parents have the ultimate role in this, and that can't (and shouldn't) be regulated. If parents don't do their part, none of the regulations are gonna do squat. There is no "quick win"

Did a twitter search to see if anyone else was mentioning it. Would like to flag that @jibone has proposed zero-knowledge approach yesterday (I only tweeted today). Most critical thing: Socmed platform must NOT be able to give the gov the identity of a person saying something
