Let’s work together towards a better Malaysia.

Dear members in the NYCC,

Greetings from the secretariat!

After the 12th General Election, the political landscape in Malaysia has change. Some of the state governments are fall into the opposition parties. It is a great opportunity for us to assert our agenda to the new states government.

If we want our voices heard. Then we need to prepare ourselves with the position papers or memorandum about the issues that related to the youth. For example, the abolishment of UUCA, the establishment of Youth Parliament in the state level, the free education and some other agenda that we put in the Youth Agenda for Change.

Actually, the civil society already came out with the mechanism for the election at the local council. The women group also come out with their demands. CIJ also will push for their Freedom of Information Act. I think youth can focus on the youth parliament, abolishment of UUCA etc.
