Terengganu passes enactment to lower minimum age of state election candidates to 18

Wednesday, 12 Aug 2020 06:18 PM MYT

While tabling the enactment, Syariah Implementation, Education and Higher Education Committee chairman Satiful Bahri Mamat said the amendment sought to lower the age eligibility to be a state legislative assembly representative, from 21 to 18. Amendments were made to Article 47 of the Federal Constitution pertaining to the minimum age of candidates in elections which were gazetted on Sept 10, 2019.

Meanwhile, the assembly sitting was told that the state government has temporarily suspended the GanuShop application to make several improvements that would increase sales transactions and entrepreneur participation by 50 per cent.
