JOHOR POLLS | With the countdown to the Johor state election underway and the Negeri Sembilan polls about to begin, 134 Chinese associations have urged voters from both states to return home and fulfil their civic duty.

In a joint statement, the groups, which include the Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall (KLSCAH), said while they understand that some voters feel disillusioned, choosing not to vote will not change the status quo.
