WNAM Monitoring: Young voters, who will make up the majority of voters in February’s election, are hoping that the new president and vice president will keep public discussions alive to ensure grassroots aspirations are heard in the future. “If you’re unwilling to listen to criticism, eventually, [people] will become apathetic [toward any incoming government],” 22-year-old student Mohammad Tegar Tsabitul, a registered voter in Jakarta, said last week, as quoted by Antara. “At the very least, [the elected president should] establish an institution to listen to grassroots voices.” Data from the General Elections Commission (KPU) shows that some 52 percent of the country’s 204 million total registered voters are younger than 40. A third of all registered voters are millennials, while 22 percent belong to Generation.
