PETALING JAYA: Umno is amending its constitution to accept members as young as 16 into the party, in tandem with the government's move to lower voting age to 18, says party Youth chief Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki.

The amendment process would be hastened, as the Supreme Council had last year given the nod to lower the age of membership eligibility from 18 to 16, he added.
