Elections and the young voter: Unenthusiastic and distrustful

PETALING JAYA: Young people are not keen to even register to vote in the next general election, according to a survey carried out in 165 parliamentary constituencies.

Among the reasons for the lack of interest shown by the 604 respondents, aged between 21 and 30, in the survey was to a large degree due to the distrust they have for politicians.
