Spark returns to southern state

Double duty: Johor voters had to go to the polls twice this year – for the state election on March 12 and for GE15 on Nov 19.

IT WAS an eventful beginning to 2022 in Johor when its state legislative assembly was dissolved on Jan 22, paving the way for the state election which took place on March 12 to elect 56 assemblymen.

The state election was the first to feature Undi 18 voters, after the voting age was lowered to 18 years, as well as automatic voter registration.
