KOTA KINABALU: The move to lower the age bracket for youths from 40 to 30 will spark more interest from this target group to be involved in youth clubs and organisations.

Sabah Rural Development Minister Datuk Ewon Benedick (pic) said this in support of the Dewan Rakyat's approval of the Youth Organisations and Youth Development Act (Amendment) which defines youth to be those up to 30 years old, compared with the previous 40.
