Shahidan suggestion validates race-based delineation exercise

Bersih 2.0 chairperson Maria Chin Abdullah says Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Shahidan Kassim's suggestions that Malaysians vote according to race further validates fears that the Election Commission (EC)'s redelineation exercise was done according to race.

She says his statements reflect what ex-EC chief Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman had said about gerrymandering to keep Malays in power.
