The SJB yesterday requested the government to ensure through constitutional means at least 40 percent of youth participation in the national legislature as well as at other tiers of governmemt.
Addressing the media at the Opposition Leader’s office in Colombo, SJB MP Bakeer Markar said that the government and other political parties should try to increase the participation of the youth in political institutions besides seeking their votes. “Prime Minister of Finland is a 35-year-old woman. Malaysia’s Youth Affairs Minister is 26 years old. Recently, a female mayor of 21 years of age was elected in a city in Kerala. We must take into consideration such world trends. Soon most of the world leaders would be from the younger generation. Therefore, we urge the government to bring about laws to ensure through constitutional provisions the youth participation in parliament and other administrative bodies.”
