TELUK INTAN Offering a response that is bound to infuriate its detractors, the Election Commission (EC) has interpreted Home Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s warning to volunteer corp Rela members as mere advice.

"As a minister, he is just giving advice to those in Teluk Intan (who are) eligible voters to fulfil their responsibility and not all Rela members are qualified to vote," said commission chief Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof.
