OLDER people tend to be preferred over younger people in established democracies because they are more likely to vote and have clout to make a difference at the ballot box. This explains why governments, for example, are less likely to cut pension funds than tuition fees in universities.
In Malaysia, it is unsurprising that political discourse is often tainted by the issue of race and religion as it is expected to appeal to constituents of the older generation who are used to such narrative compared to the youth, who generally do not subscribe to it.
