EC deputy criticises ‘hypocrisy’ of opposition leaders Election Commission deputy chairman Datuk Wan Ahmad Wan Omar called the opposition leaders hypocrites because they will be taking their oath as parliamentarians soon although they dispute the 13th general election results. "They won 89 (parliamentary) seats and more than two-thirds majority in three states but on the streets, they reject the general election results. Really, this is hypocrisy," he said. "Their principles are not the same as their actions. It seems their principle is that they cannot accept the GE13 results. But their actions (show us what)? Now we see that they want to take their oath (of office); they changed their stance and earlier they said they only wanted to boycott the briefing (for MPs)." "If they had no confidence in the general election process and regulations in the first place, that it was not transparent and there would be cheating as they claimed, they should not have troubled themselves by participating in it," he added.
