This includes support for teaching controversial issues. It is also refer to an awareness of political sensitivities, agendas and other external factor that enables you to cooperate effectively in a political environment. People always narrate that political is only for or suitable to adult people. Youths getting involved in politics are not a healthy attitude. This happens because they do not understand the definition of politic. They always thought that political is only involving political parties and voters. Youth is considered as backbone to the nation. They can change the future of the society with their well being and courageous behaviour. But how far the political awareness among youth. Unfortunately today we find the youth those who are more interested in other places which are not useful to them as well as nation. They are more interested in other things because for them, politic not benefit them. Even though, there are some research has found that around the world there is a growing interest in young people participating in politics. Thisscenario is only occurring in some countries like in US. Recent data from the presidential primaries in the US suggests that youth participation has risen sharply. But this not happen in Malaysia, the involvement of youth is very dishearten. |
