KOTA KINABALU: The youth in Sabah are excited to vote, and are learning about the importance their vote plays in national politics.

An example of this new awareness is 23-year-old Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) student Rowena Vannesa Roger, who said that she was not aware of the importance of voting before Undi18 was passed - although she always felt excited about elections.
