Here's a behind-the-scenes story shared by volunteer Dorene about a "no-official-name" team formed in less than 4 days to coordinate US flights arriving at KLIA on polling day. How to ensure all postal ballots reach ROs as far as Sabah lah? In less than ONE day!! 🧵👇 World map showing the postal ballot journeys to Kuala Lumpur
It was a heart-stopping journey of many legs that involved the roping in of an Etihad Cypriot pilot to fly ballots from NYC to Abu Dhabi. There, another pilot received the ballots and handed them to a pilot passenger (flyer) to carry to KUL. 🧵👇
Lagi kancheong when one of their flyers was detained at the KLIA police station for not having a 'ballot carrying permit." Fortunately, due to speedy support from volunteers & SPR, he was released.

There were also runners who kena saman parking and one who had a car break-in👇
And when cars were caught in traffic jams, the appeals to motorcyclists to continue the last mile journey...

Many of the ballots arrived in the nick of time—refer to the beautiful infographic designed by Edelyn, with data presented by team's data geeks. 🧵👇
So drama kan?!

👋Your Twitter Aunty is here to nag you again.

We need to talk.
Reality check.
Here's the situation:

1⃣ There are 50k #PostalVoters for #GE15, compared to 8k for GE14. That's as big as the Putrajaya constituency.

🧵👇 DON'T BE A WEAPON OF MASS MISINFORMATION! (Text accompanied
2⃣ The Global Bersih team are VOLUNTEERS, who are taking time off from day jobs and family commitments to work together and with other organisations to achieve ONE GOAL: To ensure all #OverseasMalaysians who are #PostalVoters get their votes counted. #EveryVoteCounts 🧵👇
3⃣This means
- Guiding you on filling out Borang 2 correctly & packing your ballots for hand delivery
- Working with Global Malaysian Network, who are managing volunteer city coordinators, witnesses & flyers to get your votes to Malaysia
- Constantly fact-checking with SPR 🧵
