Host: Welcome to News Quest.

Voice: News Quest!


Host: On today’s program: the Voting Age Referendum

Voice: What?

Host: A general vote on a single political question: ‘Should the voting and candidacy age be lowered to 18-year-olds in Taiwan?’

Voice: Where?

Host: The minimum voting age in Taiwan is currently 20. It’s one of a small number of democratic countries that don’t allow 18-year-olds a vote.

Voice: How?

Host: It would require a constitutional amendment, which can only happen if over half the electorate agree: at least 9.65 million people

Voice: Why?

Host: It’s argued that, if 18-year-olds can be prosecuted as adults or enlisted in the military, they should be given equal civil and political rights.

Voice: Who?

Host: All over Taiwan young people have been campaigning, raising awareness and increasing support

Voice: When?

Host: This referendum is due to be held at the same time as Taiwan’s local elections, on November 26th.
