Music can make democracy go round


Power music: With a low voter turnout expected on the coming polling day, do we need an election song like ‘Undilah’ (pix) or ‘Mari Mengundi’ to encourage people to vote? – Others

EVERY election, one song will definitely come to mind for many Malaysians: Mari Mengundi.

With its upbeat melody and familiar lyrics – “Marilah mari, pergi mengundi. Jangan lupa kewajipan pada negara” (Come on, come on, let’s go and vote. Don’t forget our responsibility to the nation) – this 44-year-old song would without fail become an earworm for most of us throughout the election season.
