“Do not create a situation whereby these first-time voters are exposed to toxic politics such as accusations and harsh insults,” said deputy youth and sports minister Adam Adli.

“Instead, give the young voters a chance to see politics as a good platform on which to progress,” he said.

“All those involved directly with the state elections, such as political parties, political leaders, including myself, should campaign in a healthy manner which would be beneficial to youths,” he told reporters here.

Adam, who is also head of PKR Youth, said everyone must provide young voters with a good political experience.

He also advised young voters to carry out their duty at the state elections as it will be a great opportunity to express their opinion through their votes. “I hope the young voters will compare and choose their candidates in a healthy manner,” he said.
