Is GPS Shooting Itself in the Foot?

The Sarawak state legislative assembly was dissolved on November 3rd, paving the way for polls to be held before January 2nd. However, over 100,000 young Malaysians could be disenfranchised as Undi18 would not have kicked in yet. Will GPS’ strategy of rushing the elections backfire? We discuss the likely campaign issues and political dynamics ahead of state polls with political commentator Dr. James Chin.
