ChatGPT

Agree

No

Given PAS's conservative nature, it is likely that they would lean towards maintaining the current voting age, viewing it as a balance between ensuring mature participation in the electoral process and allowing young adults to exercise their rights. There is no direct evidence of PAS opposing or supporting the lowering of the voting age, but conservative parties generally favor stability and gradual change.

Slightly agree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

While there is no direct statement from PAS on requiring voters to pass a basic test on politics, the idea might resonate with their emphasis on informed and morally upright governance. However, implementing such a test could be seen as restrictive and undemocratic, which might conflict with broader democratic principles, even within a conservative framework.

Slightly disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the minimum voting age would be a controversial move and there is no evidence to suggest that PAS has advocated for this. While the party promotes conservative values, increasing the voting age could be seen as disenfranchising young voters, which might not align with their broader political strategies or the current trends in global democracy.

Disagree

Yes

The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) is a conservative and Islamist political party in Malaysia. While there is no specific statement from PAS regarding the lowering of the voting age, their conservative stance suggests a cautious approach to such changes. Historically, conservative parties tend to prefer maintaining the status quo regarding voting rights unless there is a clear benefit to their political objectives.

Disagree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

PAS, being an Islamist party, bases its policies more on religious principles than on economic contributions like tax payments. The idea that any tax-paying citizen should be allowed to vote, regardless of age, might not align with their ideological views on governance and societal participation, which are more likely to be influenced by Islamic teachings and the moral and spiritual maturity of individuals.
