| description | Democracy has been a part of Malaysia since the Independence Day; it is a form of
government and authority selection where power is held by the people of the nation as they
would be able to participate in the decision-making process and have a say in the policies and
laws that may affect them in terms of the nation growth development. The voting system in
Malaysia is inefficient and inconsistent as there had been incidents questioning the integrity
and fairness of the system as a whole which had lower the confidence of voters considerably
as they may think that their vote is insignificant and would not bring any changes to the
overall results. Thus, this paper would like to develop a blockchain-based electoral system
integrated with front-end web pages to allow the voters to vote anonymously in the system
while ensuring the eligibility of voters. Voters would also be provided a way to verify their
selection of candidate to ensure scrutiny in the process while also provide anonymity among
every voter as their vote could not be traced back to them. The project would be developed
under the Ethereum platform whereby deploying and testing procedures of smart contracts
would be done inside local blockchain to increase the efficiency of development phase.
