6:19 pm
sanity prison to t for 12 years. mac malaysians are not only battling for political stability. the country has been hit hard by inflation. high cost of living is affecting me and the recent flats have displaced thousands of people and affected many businesses, benevolently as traders. we don't see the government helping or providing aid. we have asked for help and we have not received anything and well cut in prime minister if my property. yeah. groups you, i may, no party remain tinted with corruption scandal involving the cheaper stock and other members. but he's promising economic incentives for people that those is most of his mean opponent is long time opposition leader. and what a brain he promises to prioritize the economy, bring political stability and,
6:20 pm
and corruption according to pulls a pro, him is a hit for the candidates. but no single party is expected to win a simple majority. turning off or more from column poise correspondent dave guna bomb. dave. these electrons was supposed to be held next year. they have been brought forward to now why is that? it? well, the really coalition barrison national and the party that dominates them. united malays, national organization. i'm know. well they're clearly looking to strengthen their hand. and the thing is this, the forecasting that next year the economy would be doing even worse than it is now . so their thinking was it would be better for them to call for this election. now it may backfire though. i mean, the thing is that they've openly said that the former prime minister, who's their former leader of the coalition. not deborah zach. he's in prison now in a 12 year jail sentence connected to
6:21 pm
a graph scandal. while they basically said they feel that he should be pardon. and they're clearly going to ask the hope is to ask the king to have them pardon. additionally, their current leader, a virus on national, so he's meeting, he's facing dudley's corruption charges himself. he says, is that it's a political prosecution. now opponents are pushing the same ones, but you know, meeting his own goal here is to try and be put in a situation where he can appoint an attorney general, who will have the charges dropped against them. that's been something now pollution has been using. you're trying to use, i need of the branching bag. how does that play out? well, we're going to find out tomorrow or jones. i was attrition. that since 20 in 2018 election, melissa has had a 3 prime ministers. you spoke about corruption with these polls. finally, sought out the issue of corruption and provide political stability. is very hard to say. i mean corruption here. so many people, when i talk to voters,
6:22 pm
say correction is just so and demick in the system, just so entwined in the system that it seems that one election is not going to get rid of it. but perhaps we could reduce it as far as political stability goes in this country. well, that's a real open question. i mean, sure, the idea was that they want to have more stability. the business community is screening for stability. but here's the thing, is the current pulling is accurate, none of the coalitions are going to get the majority of seats in parliament from getting up by the voters tomorrow. so then what happens after the election will then be different leaders of these coalitions are going to have to try and horse trade to see if they can somehow pull together an alliance. that gets them to that magic number of a 100. well, 112 gives you a majority of the 222 seats, but if they're pulling together a frag somewhat fragment that a line, what happens is down the road, some members of the lines together backed out, then you have again another prime minister tunnels that we've seen several times during the past few years here. so it's not clear at all that tomorrow election and
6:23 pm
going to bring more stability to this country. a large proportion of the some 21000000 people who be going to the polls, who could be going to the balls are under the age of 40. and out of this $21000000.00, about $2000000.00 are 1st time 18 to 21 year olds, who will be voting. how much of a difference can their vote make? if you look at this whole group, the under 40 demographic makes it more than half of the eligible voters in this country, including these 181922 are eligible to vote for the 1st time we see making 20 out there being looked at as a wildcard, how motivated are they going to be to vote? that's no one really knows on that point as far as the under 40, as a picture, 1839 year old go. well, as i said, that more than half of the eligible voters. and clearly the political parties and coalition have made it a big factor, a big part of their campaign would try to kill them once you see a lot of new young candidates being fielded. and then you also see candidates of
6:24 pm
all ages trying to target these young voters. they're going to places where they congregate, they're going to coffee shop. they're going to different events where they will find young people to meet them, to talk to them, to try to relate to them. it's also interesting. i spoke to them or decor center for opinion research, which is done survey here. and they say that young motors, the majority of them, they don't trust politicians, they don't trust political parties. and that's why you see on the campaign trail. so many of these candidates and coalitions have tried to remake the image of their leaders to make them look like they're not just politicians. but these are caring people who have cause they really believe in and are going to fight for us. you see really targeting of the young voters by the candidates and the coalitions. thanks very much for that or leave it there for the time being tech. so much dave going about correspond, joining us from political ah, now the city of heroes above, in northern india is well known throughout the country for its glass bangles. these
