Time for Malaysia to implement fixed general election dates, says Sabah youth group

KOTA KINABALU: Malaysia should consider setting a fixed date for the general election after each five-year term of Parliament ends to avoid disruption of government programmes in place, suggests a Sabah youth body.

Sabah's Federation of Interior Youth Associations (Gabungan) said that a fixed five-year term for Parliament and also state assemblies would ensure that snap and unscheduled elections would not disrupt the country's development plans.
