State polls: Young voters to shape Malaysian politics, need to make wise decision, says PM


KEPALA BATAS: Young voters aged between 18 and 25, have a strong influence in shaping the country’s politics and this determines the future of Malaysia, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

In this regard, the Prime Minister said this young group should decide wisely in the state election in six states to determine a bright future for the nation and its youth.

"As such, our children should deliberate hard before deciding the shape of politics in Malaysia, on which direction, what peaceful form, how to encompass all races, have clear economic policies and to attract investment as our children’s future depends on the shape of politics.

"So our children have to make a wise decision, you decide what is best for your country," he said when speaking to 1,500 students at the "Meet Anwar - Madani Education Discussion" at Penang Matriculation College here on Saturday (Aug 5).

He said young children needed to be strong to stop all insults involving race and religion so that the people lived as a strong harmonious family and saved the country.
