The upcoming Provincial Administrative Organisation (PAO) elections may struggle to garner much interest from young voters, say experts.
The elections will take place on Sunday across 76 provinces, with the positions of PAO presidents and members up for grabs.
It will be the first time since the May 2014 military coup engineered by the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) that local polls have been held. The council halted them out of concerns they might incite unrest.
Political scientists are intrigued to know whether the revived local poll will enthuse voters, particularly young, first-timers.
