PERIKATAN NASIONAL AFRAID OF UNDI18 VOTERS - DARELL
25 March 2021
Now it is revealed, after the Amendment allowing Automatic Registration of those 18 years old and Above (initiated by YB Syed Saddiq as the then Youth Minister and passed at Parliament during PH-Warisan Government), the date set out for Implementation was July 2021 and this have now been Postponed to July 2022 as announced today!
There should be no excuses at all as even their own PN Minister, YB Takiuddin, did assure the Federation last Year that UNDI18 will be fully implemented in July 2021.
Well now the EC / SPR had announced that it will be in July 2022 instead of 2021.
Why is the current Government afraid of this UNDI18 voters?
It does not mean that UNDI18 will side or vote the Opposition as the young of today have their Own Independent minds to evaluate who can best represent them and meet their desire.
For the opposition, securing the votes of the UNDI18 is a tough one too and a challenge BUT what matters are that allowing their right to Vote in PRU15 will be a significant change and a democratic improvement for the Federation.
So Prime Minister Muhyiddin, you were then the Home Minister in the PH-Warisan Federal Cabinet, you supported it just as all of us and even Parliament passed the Bill UNDI18 on a Bi-Partisan Vote.
So Prime Minister Muhyiddin, just implement what we all already agreed and made into law then and make EC ensure that NO GE15 until the UNDI18 are automatically registered as Voters!
