Announcer: You’re listening to: Top of the Topics!

[中文] 「18歲公民權」！11月26號由你來決定。

Now, please welcome your host, Chuck McSilver!

Chuck: Hello and welcome to another episode of Top of the Topics! The show where if you don’t know the news …

Audience: You Lose!

Chuck: Let’s meet today’s contestants: Give it up guys, for Harry and Megan!

Chuck: Harry, Megan, welcome to the show!

Both: Thanks Chuck!

Chuck: Harry, this is your third week! Wanna make it four?

Harry: With all my heart, Chuck!

Chuck: And Megan, think you can stop him?

Megan: I know I can!

Chuck: This is gonna be great! First, let’s get the whole crew together, with a trip to Clever Corner and a big hello to everyone’s favorite resident know-it-all, Sally Smartypants! Sally?

Sally: Thanks Chuck! Today’s Topic is: The Voting Age Referendum

Chuck: Coolio! Let’s get started: Harry, Megan, I’ll give you a word, you give us a definition. First correct answer wins. Fingers on buzzers. Ready? … Word one: ‘Referendum’ Harry.

Harry: A vote taken on a single political issue. So people can only choose one of two options: yes, or no!

Chuck: Correct! Harry charging ahead! Sally?

Sally: This upcoming referendum is all about the minimum voting age. It’s asking: ‘Should the voting and candidacy age be lowered to 18-year-olds in Taiwan?’

Chuck: Word two: ‘Minimum’ Megan.

Megan: It’s the smallest amount of something!

Chuck: Correct! One point each! Sally?

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

Chuck: Word three: ‘Government’ Megan.

Megan: It’s a group of people who have the power to manage and run a country or state.

Chuck: That’s it! Two points! Sally?

Sally: Changing the minimum voting age here in Taiwan would mean a constitutional amendment, which the government can only do if half the voting population agree … at least 9.65 million people!

Chuck: Word four: ‘Constitutional Amendment’ Megan.

Megan: Well, a ‘constitution’ is a collection of ideas and principles that guide a country or state, right? And an ‘amendment’ is a change … so … it must be when a country’s principles are changed!

Chuck: That’s it! Megan, three points! Sally?

Sally: If you’re aged 20 or over, get ready: this referendum will be held at the same time as Taiwan’s local elections, on November 26th

Chuck: Uh-oh! That sound means we’ve run out of time, and Megan’s our winner with 3 points! Didn’t she do well?!

Harry: She did great!
