KUALA LUMPUR, July 4 — With six states set for elections within weeks, Selangor has been ranked as the most democratic state in Malaysia by institutional reform advocacy group CSO Platform for Reform.
Undi18 co-founder Tharma Pillai said the league was an initiative to gauge the level of democracy amongst state assemblies and their commitment towards institutional reforms. “We are urging the respective caretaker state governments to seriously consider the scoring and we do hope those entering the polls may utilise the shortcoming of lower ranked states to be included in their manifesto to bring progressive and functional institutional reforms,” he told a press conference here.
The states in the middle tier were Pahang , Penang , Kelantan , Sarawak and Kedah , Johor and Melaka .
