On 1 October 2016, BERSIH2.0 will launch the BERSIH Convoy across the nation. The flag-off will simultaneously take place in 6 regions and they are as follows:
1. Northern Peninsular (Kangar, Perlis)
2. Southern Peninsular (Johor Bahru, Johor)
3. East Coast (Kota Bharu, Kelantan)
4. West Coast (Lumut, Perak)
5. Sabah (Sandakan)
6. Sarawak (Miri)
The objective of the BERSIH convoy is to raise awareness about BERSIH5’s demands for institutional reforms and the severity of the 1MDB crisis. As Malaysians, we must stand up and reach out to start a nationwide conversation on these issues because our collective future is in danger.
The BERSIH Convoy will take seven weeks to complete before converging in Kuala Lumpur. BERSIH Torches will be passed from town to town, and from village to village in a relay format.
