Broken arm doesn't stop Corporal Mohd. Ilham from voting

Physical injury did not deter Corporal Mohd. Ilham Hakim Romli, 36, from fulfilling his duty to vote during early polling day. He arrived at the Marine Police Force (PPM) Region Two Headquarters at 8:20 a.m., with his right arm in a sling.

Today I am scheduled for an appointment with an orthopedic specialist to assess my condition and determine if I need a metal plate for my slightly dislocated shoulder bone.

Romli stated he was eager to vote from his home in Taman Impian Jaya, Senai, before attending a specialist appointment for his arm. "Today I am scheduled for an appointment with an orthopedic specialist to assess my condition and determine if I need a metal plate for my slightly dislocated shoulder bone," he explained.

"So, I asked my younger brother to drive me here to fulfill my responsibility as a voter. For me, as long as I can walk, I will make an effort to come out and vote," he told reporters. Romli, who has served with the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) for over 16 years, sustained his fractured arm while on duty patrolling on a motorcycle near the Sultan Iskandar Building last week.

He urged citizens aged 18 and above in the state to cast their votes. "Even though my health condition is not ideal, I still strengthen my spirit to vote because I know every vote is precious. Therefore, there is no excuse for those who are healthy not to do the same," said Romli, who is currently on sick leave.
