Shahril Hamdan: Undi 18 should not be delayed, respect Parliament
- 3 years ago
Umno Youth deputy chief Shahril Hamdan told reporters today that he disagreed with the Election Commission's decision to delay the implementation of Undi 18.
He said the matter was agreed to in Parliament, and the decision should be respected.
Earlier this week, the EC said it was postponing Undi18 and automatic voter registration to after September next year, despite de facto Law Minister Takiyuddin Hassan saying it was on track for implementation in July.
The EC said the movement control order had affected its planning and preparations to lower the voting age.
