Batang Air Changes - 237 Additions and 188 Deletions

In Batang Air, 237 voters were added and 188 deleted after GE12. Among them were 42 police postal voters, whose police IC numbers were reformatted, making them look like 42 deletions and additions. Most of the changes took place in DMs Ensawang, Jela, Kesit, and Lubok Antu.

Is there anything sinister in these data? Not on the 42+42 police IC number changes. The sizes of 194 additions and 145 deletions are probably acceptable at 2% over three quarters. Only field verification can tell more. Detailed lists of additions/deletions on a voter-by-voter basis are available for field verification.


Table A shows that, in Batang Air (N29 under P203 Lubok Antu), between 2007 Dec 31 (gazetted on 2008 Feb 5 for GE12) and 2008 Sep 30 (gazetted on 2009 Feb 19? for by-election):

  • Overall, it looks like 237 voters were added and 188 deleted.
  • In reality, 42 of these additions and deletions are "illusions." These are 42 police personnel who remained, only having their IC numbering changed,
  • These are examples of actual pairs of changed police IC in Batang Air: G0008388>G8388; R0108200>RF108200; R0104156>RF104156; R0060733>RF60733
  • Another 1 police voter actually retired/moved out, while another 1 actually moved in
  • Non-police voter additions totaled 194 during the 3 quarters, and deletions totaled 145,
  • The net change was 49 additional voters over 3 quarters, increasing the total voter count to 8,006.

Bukit Selambau Changes - 553 additional and 390 deleted voters

In Bukit Selambau, 553 voter ICs were added and 390 voter ICs were deleted after GE12. The most changes took place in a few modern-sounding housing areas. As expected, the largest additions are in the 21-29 age group, and largest deletions in the 71-79 age group.

Is there anything sinister in these data? Not on the 10 police IC number changes. The size of the the roughly 390-550 regular voter changes over the first 3 quarters of 2008 look normal. Only field verification can tell more. Detailed lists of additions/deletions on a voter-by-voter basis are available for field verification.

What do "Additions" and "Deletions" mean? We have a table here that list the categories under each: Supplementary Voter Lists 2008q1 and 2007q4


Table A shows that, in Bukit Selambau (N25 under P014 Merbok), between 2007 Dec 31 (gazetted on 2008 Feb 5 for GE12) and 2008 Sep 30 (gazetted on 2009 Feb 19? for by-election):

  • Overall, it looks like 553 voters were added and 390 deleted.
  • In reality, 10 of these additions and deletions are "illusions." These are 10 police personnel who remained, only having their IC numbering changed,
  • These are examples of actual pairs of changed police IC in Bukit Selambau: R0075654>RF75654; RT007366>RFT7366; R0107927>RF107927; R0102805>RF102805
  • Another 2 police voters actually retired or moved out, and were really deleted,
  • Non-police voter additions totaled 543 during the 3 quarters, and deletions totaled 378,
  • The net change was 163 additional voters over 3 quarters, increasing the total voter count to 35,140.

Table B shows:

  • The most changes took place in the DMs of Taman Bandar Baru, Taman Ria Jaya, and Taman Ria Selatan.
  • Taman Bandar Baru is where we have found a cluster of voters with house numbers, but not street names.
  • We were worried that such non-specific addresses in what looks like modern housing estate makes it easier to hide any phantom voters. See discussion at No Street Names Despite Modern Housing in Bukit Selambau.

Bukit Gantang changes - 1048 Additions and 957 Deletions

In Bukit Gantang, 1,048 voter ICs were added and 957 voter ICs were deleted after GE12. But 128 of these additions and deletions are actually the same police voters having their IC number format changed. The most changes took place in Changkat Jering DUN. The largest additions are in the 21-29 age group, and largest deletions in the 71-79 age group.

Is there anything sinister in these data? Not on the 128 police IC number changes. As for the roughly 900 regular voter additions and deletions over the first 3 quarters of 2008, the size of changes do not look abnormal. Only field verification can tell more.

Detailed lists of additions/deletions on a voter-by-voter basis are available for field verification. They can be broken down by:

  • DUN, DM, TM, streams, or localities
  • Age
  • postal vs non-postal voters
  • postal voters who have their ICs changed, or real changes (move-ins and move-outs).

Where do these data come from?
  • We compare 2 electoral rolls, data as of 2007 Dec 31 (gazetted on 2008 Feb 5 for GE12) and 2008 Sep 30 (gazetted on 2009 Feb 19? for by-election),
  • We trawled the data for voter IC which exist in the older GE12 roll, but do not exist in the newer by-election rolls. These are the "deleted" voters,
  • We trawled for the voter IC which exist in the newer by-election rolls, but do not exist in the the older GE12 roll. These are the "added" voters,


Table A shows that, in Bukit Gantang (P029):
  • Overall, it looks like 1,048 voter ICs were added and 957 deleted.
  • In reality, 128 of these additions and deletions are "illusions." These are 128 police personnel who remained in Bukit Gantang, only having their IC numbering changed,
  • Examples of actual pairs of changed police IC: RT008120>RFT8120; RT009431>RFT9431; R0091282>RF91282; R0101133>RF101133
  • Non-police voter additions (new registrations, moved in) totaled 920 during the 3 quarters, and deletions (moved out, death, other reasons) totaled 829,
  • The net change was 91 additional voters over 3 quarters, increasing the total voter count to 55,562.

Batang Air - 96% voters without house number, 350-in-one address

Over 96% of voters in Batang Air do not have house numbers. As a result, up to 350 voters are lumped under one general locality that will be very difficult to verify. Either SPR is negligent, NRIC is negligent, or the Malaysian government development has failed to help Batang Air voters get basic and specific mailing addresses after 46 years.

None of these reasons look good. Either, SPR, NRIC, or the government has to change.


Overall, 1/3 of Malaysian voters are registered without house number (NoRumah). See our blog entry NoRumah? No Rumah? More than 1/3 voters homeless?

If you think that is bad, Table A shows that:

  • Batang Air is close to the extreme case in percentage of voters WITHOUT house number.
  • 96.3% of Batang Air (N29) of Lubok Antu (P203) are registered by SPR without a house number.
  • An example: 350 voters live in 203/29/02/002 without house number, ie, Lubok Antu /Batang Air/Lubok Antu/Lubok Antu/[blank house number]
  • There are 5 DMs with 100% rate of voters without house number.
  • The only one below the 90% rate is DM Lubok Antu, with 87% of voters without house numbers.
  • Even if Batang Air residents are mostly living in long houses, aren't there more specific door numbers or room/hall/section numbers, at least for a few percentages of the voters?

What can by-election observers do?

Use phone cameras to take photo of any voter ICs with specific house number but whose house numbers do not appear in the voter roll. This would prove that SPR has not registered voters properly, or not publishing the information for voter verification.

Go here for more details about this suggestion.

In the above link, we suggest how field observers can verify whether these voters really do or do not have house numbers in the IC/MyKad. If they don't, then the pressure should shift to NRIC Department to include these crucial information in ICs.


Table B shows that:
  • SPR's voter registration is so unspecific, omitting any house/door number, that 350 voters are lumped into an address without house number (NoRumah).
  • 67 localities without house number contain more than 50 voters each.

  • The smallest voting stream will be used by only 75 voters, ie, 203/29/24 Lubok Antu/Batang Air/Nenyang/Sesco Township Hall.

No Street Names Despite Modern Housing in Bukit Selambau

Another problem with SPR data is the many voters registered without street names in modern housing areas, despite having a house number. More than 2/3 of voters in Taman Bandar Baru (the "new town garden"), eg, are registered with house number, but without street address.

While the previous blog entry highlighted a large number of voters registered without house number, this article questions those registered even with house numbers but without the street name. Such vague registration opens the ground for possible electoral frauds and phantom voters.

Why should SPR repeat the address information of Taman Peruda/Taman Peruda (DM/lokaliti), or Taman Bandar Baru/Taman Bandar Baru Sg Lalang, but miss out the street name (such as Lorong 1 or Jalan 1)?

This issue is similar to the "big houses" issue discussed in


Table A shows that in Bukit Selambau (N25 under P014) in Kedah:
  • 94 addresses of "big houses" are each registered with 15 or more voters ,
  • these are addresses with specific house number,
  • an example is that 85 voters live in 014/25/04/007 (Merbok/Bukit Selambau/Taman Bandar Baru/Taman Bandar Baru Sg Lalang ), registered WITH the house number 7
  • What's going on? Why such a "big house?"
  • Why does SPR repeat the information "Taman Bandar Baru" twice but not give information on what "Jalan" or "Lorong"?
  • Table B will group them into mainly 2 large clusters of such voters.

Table B contains the same data as Table A, but re-grouped by Kodlokaliti, so that similar addresses are clustered together.


Table B shows that:
  • There are 2 clusters of houses where SPR recorded specific "house numbers" but failed to record or publish the "street name and numbers," such as "Jalan 1" or "Lorong 1".
Cluster 1: Taman Bandar Baru Sg Lalang
  • This makes it difficult to verify the existence of these voters, and easy to commit election fraud with phantom voters.
  • The voters in these 60 houses total 2,729 persons, and represents 65% of the 4,179 voters within this DM (014/25/04 or Merbok/Bukit Selambau/Taman Bandar Baru)
  • There must be more cases below 15 voters in the same addresses, and the percentage of those who appear to live in "big houses" must be higher than 65%.
  • These are not old "kampong" or village addresses, or apartments,
  • They appear to be modern housing areas, judging from the name (Taman Bandar Baru Sg Lalang) and map of the neighbourhood on WikiMapia.org (see right).
  • When we Google for "kedah 'taman bandar baru' lorong or jalan" we readily found specific examples of Lorong or Jalan names and numbers (eg, Lorong Jati) for this housing estate.
Our questions:
  • Had SPR been negligent and not properly registering and publishing these voter's "Lorong/Jalan" names and numbers?
  • Doesn't this make it difficult for election observers, even SPR itself, to verify the existence of these voters?
  • Doesn't this make it easy for someone to commit election fraud and plant phantom voters?
  • If SPR had strictly followed a voters' ICs (MyKad) because the ICs contain incomplete address, how can the National Registration Department be so careless about the full address?
Cluster 2: Taman Peruda
  • Another cluster is 014/25/11/002 or Merbok/Bukit Selambau/Taman Peruda/Taman Peruda
  • There are 33 houses here that appear to house 15 or more voters each.
  • When we Google for "kedah 'taman peruda' lorong or jalan" we readily found specific examples of Lorong or Jalan names and numbers (eg, Lorong 2) for this housing estate.

What can be done?

Use our phone camera to take photo of ICs with specific street name in these 2 clusters, to prove that SPR has not registered voters properly, or not publishing the information for voter verification.

Go here for more details about this suggestion.

In the above link, we suggest how field observers can verify whether these voters really do not have house numbers in the IC/MyKad. If so, then the pressure should be on NRIC to include these crucial information in ICs.

Vague addresses - 20% without house numbers in Bukit Selambau

20% voters in Bukit Selambau are registered WITHOUT house numbers. The largest such address with blank house numbers has 339 voters. One DM has 90% voters WITHOUT house number.

SPR voter roll data are highly unspecific, making it difficult to verify voter existence, which leaves an opening for electoral frauds and the introduction of phantom voters:

  1. This article will show that many voters are registered by SPR without recording their specific address house numbers (the situation even worse in Batang Air, to be discussed in a later article),
  2. The next blog will show that, even when house numbers are registered, a large number of voters are registered without their specific street names (eg, Jalan 11) even in a modern housing estates, with the SPR recording only the name of the general housing area (eg, Taman Mewah).

This issue is similar to the "blank house number" issue discussed in:

Table A shows that
  • 20.4% of 35,140 voters, or 7,163, in Bukit Selambau (N25 of Kedah, under P014 Merbok) are registered on SPR voters roll without house number (NoRumah).

Table B shows that, in Bukit Selambau,
  • 12 localities or addresses have over 200 voters registered without house number (blank NoRumah data field).
  • 6 of them have over 300 voters.
  • An example is the 339 voters live in 014/25/03/003 but without house number, ie, Merbok/Bukit Selambau/Bukit Lembu/Ladang Sungai Getah/[blank house number]
  • We have "cleaned up" the house number (NoRumah) data field, because SPR has been inconsistent with house number format, such as using "" blanks, "Null", "Nil", "Tiada", or "-" to represent the same thing.

Table C shows that, in N25 Bukit Selambau of Kedah (under P014 Merbok):
  • 5 out of 22 DMs (Daerah Mengundi, voting district) have more than 80% of voters registered WITHOUT house numbers (NoRumah),
  • The highest rate is at 014/25/15 or Merbok/Bukit Selambau/Petani Para, with over 90% blank house numbers.
  • 8/22 DMs have over half of voters registered without house numbers.
  • In the next blog entry, we will see that even those DMs with low rate of blank house number are problematic!
  • We will see that, for example, Taman Bandar Baru (014/25/04, more than 1/2) and Taman Peruda (014/25/11, more than 1/3 voters) contain a large number of voters registered with house number, but without specific street names (eg Jalan 1)!
  • So SPR has published voter roll that despite looking good in table C below, is making voters difficult to trace and verify (see next blog entry).
