I don't think 5000 voters went missing, at least not between GE12 and the by-election rolls. Whatever they are referring to, they need to tell what time frame they are talking about.
I have 3 new articles here that examine the changes in voters between GE12 and by-election.
The GE12 data are up to 2007 Dec 31, gazetted on 2008 Feb 5, for the 2008 Mar 8 GE. The by-election data are, as far as I can tell, data up to 2008 Sep 30, gazetted 2009 Feb 19 (a bit slow), for by-election of 209 Apr 7.
But there is some strangeness in the way Bukit Gantang is delineated to extend northeast, into the expressway area, outskirt of west Taiping, where there are more population.
