Future-Proofing Democracy Beyond Undi18: IMPS MD Amir Isyam in The Star

Our Managing Director, Amir Isyam Abdul Rahim, has written in The Star about “Future-Proofing Democracy Beyond Undi18.”

In the article, Amir highlights the hidden fractures in our democracy: generational divides, the risk of political stagnation, and the subtle decay when young people’s voices are sidelined.

Amir also argues that lowering the voting age to 18 (Undi18) is just step one. To truly safeguard our democratic future, we need intergenerational equity, stronger youth engagement, protections against misinformation and deepfakes, and governance that is responsive to all age groups.
