Youth navigating Malaysian politics; time for political literacy


From L-R: Am Abdul Aziz, Chow Shenn Kuan, & Khair Noor Hisham

Young, hopeful and discerning

Recently, I had a chat with three young Perdana Fellows attached to the Finance Ministry - Am Abdul Aziz, 26, Chow Shenn Kuan, 24, and Khair Noor Hisham, 22 - and our conversation was about the recent Sabah state elections, during which a mini quiz arose on "Malaysian political acronyms" such as PN, PH, MN, PPBM, PAS, Umno, PKR, DAP, GRS and Muda.
