Can I run for elections?
Can I be a party leader? Whats the procedure to have a new party if Im allowed?
Yes, you can as long as you are a Malaysian with no criminal record. To run for elections, you must be affiliated with a political party and be a leader of some sort. The levels are many where you need to be elected through the ranks before being chosen to represent the party during the elections. However, you can also run as an independent if you feel that you have the support of the people of your constituency. There are certain rules regarding running for elections and this is where you will need to be aware of. If you run for a federal seat and win, then you will be sworn in as a member of parliament.
