In a posting by The Nation, an online Bangkok social news media, it was reported that the authorities in Malaysia have tightened the borders when dual nationality Thais and Malaysians are securing monetary compensation to vote in the Malaysian election in the far reaches of the Kelantan North. There are some 200 of these dual nationality holders who were paid RM 50.00 or Thai Baht 400.00. And if these 200 dual nationality holders succeeded in voting on the 9th of May, they would be further paid RM 200.00 that's roughly about Thai Baht 1,600.00. As this will purvey irregularities in our election system, the authorities have only allowed two crossings on the election day. The article did not say who these 200 dual nationality holders would be voting for.
