Bersih chief Ambiga Sreenevasan welcomed the move by Prime Minister Najib Razak to form a bi-partisan parliamentary committee to look into the electoral system, but called for NGOs to be included.
Ambiga, the former Bar Council president, also stressed that Bersih's 8 demands should be carried out before the 13th general election, which many expect to be held this year.
"We welcome this announcement by the Prime Minister. It is a positive response to the Rakyat (people's) misgivings about the electoral process," Ambiga told Malaysia Chronicle.
