Bersih stresses that the EC must remain firm in its restrictions against the government.
Bersih has proposed that ministers and public officials who are party leaders take annual leave if they want to campaign in an election during working hours.
This was among its proposals in response to Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who said the Election Commission's campaigning restrictions on ministers while they are on duty put the government at a disadvantage against the"jobless" opposition.That the only government assets a minister is allowed to use during campaigning are their official vehicle, driver, and a reasonable number of security personnel.
That the prime minister is allowed to use government aircraft if the party or coalition pays a first-class fare for the premier and their entourage.The EC exercise its constitutional powers to produce a comprehensive code of conduct that covers the function of governments and caretaker governments during an election.
