It's time to enter your informed voter era.
We're kicking off our GE2025 Special series with a power-packed episode featuring a panel of political analysts and academics: Dr. Felix Tan, Dr. Gillian Koh, Dr. Mustafa Izzuddin and Dr. Elvin Ong.
We tackle the practical questions many voters face: Where do we even start? How do we think about our vote? What do we prioritise in our decision-making process?
We specially designed this episode to offer a spectrum of viewpoints to empower our community, the young adult voters, to develop informed approaches to casting our ballots.
