Undeterred by accident-caused disability, policewoman casts early vote in Melaka polls
She expressed satisfaction with the smooth voting process, including the accessibility facilities provided for voters.
AYER KEROH – A road accident that left her with a disability almost 17 years ago has not stopped Sergeant Siti Nur Maslinda Nor from fulfilling her responsibility as an early voter in the 16th Melaka state election.
The 47-year-old policewoman, who serves at the Licensing Branch of the Management Department, was among police personnel who cast their ballots at the Melaka Contingent Police Headquarters (IPK) earlier this morning.
She said the accident occurred in 2008 while she was travelling home from work during her posting in Perak.
Having been transferred to Melaka in 2020, Siti said this was her second time voting in the state election.
She expressed satisfaction with the smooth voting process, including the accessibility facilities provided for voters.
"Alhamdulillah, everything went smoothly today. I am also satisfied because the route to the polling station was accessible and smooth," she told reporters after casting her vote.
She also urged members of the public who would be voting on Nov 14 to cooperate with election workers to ensure the process proceeded smoothly.
A total of 2,445 police personnel and 9,769 members of the Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM) were eligible to cast their ballots during early voting across Melaka on Tuesday, including 817 voters at the Melaka IPK.
