BERSIH組的最後一週

這個禮拜是我們與mentors的成果報告，每一組同學和mentor負責一個主題，比較台灣和馬來西亞制度上的不同。以下是我們探討的主題：

1. 馬來西亞是否適合實行台灣的兩票制度

杜芷柔同學分析了台灣的兩票制度的優缺點，探討它是否能幫助馬來西亞解決單一選區下的問題。關注了比例代表制在台灣如何平衡地方與全國的代表性，以及這種制度是否能幫助馬來西亞減少選舉不公、政黨跳槽以及選區劃分不均等問題。

2. 台灣地方選舉如何影響國家層面？

邱億宸同學分享台灣地方選舉如何影響國家政治層面的例子。通過比較台灣和馬來西亞的地方選舉制度，我們發現地方選舉在塑造國家政治環境中扮演著重要角色。

3. 馬來西亞和台灣的不在籍投票

汪佩諭同學討論了兩國的不在籍投票制度，通過比較，我們了解了馬來西亞 postal voting的實踐以及台灣在這方面實行的困境。

4. 馬來西亞反貪污委員會與台灣廉政署比較

胡育誠同學比較了兩國的反貪污機構，了解它們在打擊腐敗和促進廉政方面的努力。我們討論了兩國在制度設計、執行力和公眾信任方面的差異，並探討了互相學習的機會。

這一週的討論讓我們更深刻地理解了兩國制度的優缺點，也激發了我們對未來改革的思考和期望。感謝BERSIH全體以及mentors的指導和合作。

The Final Week of the BERSIH Group

This week, we presented our findings with our mentors. Each group of students and mentors focused on a topic comparing the systems in Taiwan and Malaysia. Here are the topics we explored:

1. Is Taiwan's Two-Vote System Suitable for Malaysia?

Bonnie Tu analyzed the pros and cons of Taiwan's two-vote system, exploring whether it could help Malaysia address issues in its single-member district system. The discussion focused on how proportional representation in Taiwan balances local and national representation and whether this system could help Malaysia reduce electoral unfairness, party switching, and unequal district delineation.

2. How Do Local Elections in Taiwan Affect the National Level?

Ethan Qiu shared examples of how local elections in Taiwan influence national politics. By comparing the local election systems in Taiwan and Malaysia, we discovered that local elections play a significant role in shaping the national political environment.

3. Access to Voting in Malaysia and Taiwan

Tapuink discussed the absentee voting systems in both countries. Through comparison, we learned about the practice of postal voting in Malaysia and the challenges Taiwan faces in this area.

4. Comparison of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission and Taiwan’s Agency Against Corruption

Eddie Hu compared the anti-corruption agencies in both countries, examining their efforts to combat corruption and promote integrity. We discussed the differences in institutional design, enforcement capabilities, and public trust between the two nations and explored opportunities for mutual learning.

This week's discussions deepened our understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the systems in both countries and inspired us to think about future reforms. We are grateful for the guidance and cooperation of the entire BERSIH team and our mentors.
