Undi-18

MOHE will set up a committee for the student voter education empowerment programme (Undi 18), said its minister, Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad.

GE15 will be the first general election in the country's history where 18-year-olds will be eligible to vote.

Annuar said with the registration, the new voters will be able to experience voting for the first time in the coming general election.

Undi 18 and automatic voter registration will be implemented before Dec 31, said Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.

The reason Undi 18 cannot be done before Dec 31 this year is because the Election Commission (EC) is not ready for it.

The system is not expected to be ready so soon after the constitution was amended, Wan Junaidi said.

The government wants to give young people in Malaysia more power, hence the implementation of Undi 18, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

The matter will be raised by Gobind Singh Deo (PH-Puchong), who will pose the question to the Prime Minister.

Anwar said technical questions and matters relating to certain laws should not be an excuse to delay the implementation of Undi 18.
