A letter from ASSOC PROF NAHRIZUL ADIB KADRI, Universiti Malaya
NIBONG TEBAL: There are mixed sentiments of voters’ enthusiasm for the Sungai Bakap by-election, especially among the non-Malays, as observed by two residents.
“They are younger than me, which is worrying as they are the future generation. Their opinion is that there is no point in coming back to vote,” he said at his noodles and rice stall in Taman Wellesley in Sungai Bakap yesterday. “I understand their reasoning. Work opportunities here do not come by easily, so many have moved away for a better life. They lack interest in the political situation here as they are leading new lives elsewhere,” he said.
“My stalls had so many more customers during lunch hour in the past. I can feel the difference as I have been running this stall here for decades,” he said.S. Thiyagaraj, 43, a security company director, said sentiments had changed since the government put more emphasis on technical and vocational education and training, education and sports.
