They must be strictly non-partisan.
No political parties.
No party logos.
No sitting politicians.
Anyone who has been a member of a political party should first resign and remain independent for at least five years.
Former party leaders should observe a ten-year cooling-off period.
We already have more than enough politics at the national and state levels. Frankly, dah muak.
If party politicians enter local councils, we will get the same old, same old-promise one thing, do another once in power.
Local councils should be about drains, rubbish, traffic, planning, and public spaces - not ideology, patronage, or national power games.
Once party politics enters, racial narratives will be magnified and hypocrisy will become the norm.
If we truly want grassroots accountability, then let local governance be local people serving local needs—not another extension of party politics.
Peace, anas
