Restore Campus Democracy and Student Rights in Malaysia
Dear all, SUARAM has launched an online petition to support the undergraduates of 17 public universities. We are disappointed with the subsequent persecution against students who have been struggling for campus democracy and calling for free and fair campus elections. We call on the Malaysian authorities for the following:
• To investigate allegations on the flawed campus elections and malpractices by the university authorities
• To declare the September campus elections as null and void, and call for a fresh poll for all 17 local public universities. The new elections shall be conducted and monitored by independent bodies
• To immediately withdraw charges/disciplinary actions against pro-democracy students We would be grateful to have your assistance in circulating the petition:
