Cabinet to decide on separating Undi18, automatic voter registration process - superadmin - 04-01-2021 PUTRAJAYA: The youth and sports ministry has tabled a proposal to the Cabinet today to separate the implementation of the 18-year-old voting age (Undi18) and the automatic voter registration process. Its minister Reezal Merican Naina Merican said the ministry hoped that the Election Commission (EC) could implement the proposal after the Cabinet had unanimously expressed its support for Undi18 to proceed. “The amendment (to the Federal Constitution in July 2019) comprises various matters, so I think we have to start with the low hanging fruit,” he said, adding that he would submit a letter to the EC and law minister Takiyuddin Hassan on the respective proposals. Speaking to reporters after the handing-over of assignments to the Malaysia Vaccine Support Volunteers (MyVAC) here, today, Reezal said Takiyuddin would also table the details of the issue next week. - More -
