Malaysians are split on generational lines when it comes to voting, GE15 scoresheet data shows.

      I briefly check the Kedah data, it appears yes. Young voters favor PN/PAS, older voters are swinging between BN basically UMNO as Kedah is predominantly malays, except maybe Sungai Petani and Kulim, where they were won by PKR. The map shows that only the cities are favoring PH, the rest are green, as bad as you can get.

        does make sense why thy vote Green. There is no reason to trust BN cause corrupt, PH et all komunis/librul afaik stereotypes concerned, PN is BN but even more racist and conservative (worth a try). Vote Green in theory is the safest choice.

          Any religion based political party is the worst choice. They will keep using god as an excuse to strip people of their rights, and people usually will have no choice but to follow what they say. Religious politicians are still politician. They’d lie, decieve, and deceit for their own goal.

            I don’t think the voter base care so long as there’s no LGBT and progressive ideas being “pushed” on them

              There’s something wrong with a particular perceived moral value if freedom and equal rights are seen as a bad thing.

                It’s a lot more “simple” than that… it’s a matter of resource allocation. Assuming our country only has fixed amount per annum for “tongkat”, tongkating another race to the same level of bumipitera should mean less resources available for them.

                At least that’s my understanding of why they are against equal rights and to an extent individual liberty

      Tip for MKini paywall: click BM at the top, Malay version is almost always complete.

      In this case the Part 1 and 2 articles are very very long.
