PETALING JAYA: For blogger Syed Akbar Ali, a minority government is better for the majority now.

Syed, who runs OutSyed The Box, said the current system needs an overhaul, especially with the past and present ruling coalitions habitually retaining failed policies.

To do this, he hopes to convince voters, especially those in the same households, to split their ballots.


“Voters need to teach politicians a lesson by ensuring that they do not win with a huge majority, similar to the situation we have now,” he told FMT, referring to the current administration’s slim majority.

“We need politicians to come to their senses.”

Which is why he has kickstarted an initiative, literally called “Split Your Vote” or “Pecahkan Undi Anda”.



By doing so, he explained, it would force political parties to join forces to form a government as none of them would have secured an absolute majority.

Syed noted that Umno and PAS formed a pact after Umno lost power in the last general election, an alliance which was never thought plausible before.
