Abstract


Pilihan Raya Umum (PRU) ke-14 adalah salah satu pilihan raya yang telah mencatatkan sejarah tersendiri apabila BN yang memerintah selama 61 tahun berjaya ditewaskan buat kali pertamanya. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pola sokongan golongan belia Melayu di kawasan luar bandar di negeri Kedah. Dengan menggunakan data primer yang diperoleh daripada keputusan PRU 2018 dari Suruhanjaya Pilihan Raya mengikut saluran undi golongan belia yang terdiri daripada 3 DUN luar bandar terpilih di negeri Kedah. Data tersebut dianalisis menggunakan kaedah analisis berdasarkan majoriti yang dimenangi parti politik yang bertanding di kawasan tersebut yang disokong dengan maklumat sekunder iaitu kajian lepas daripada artikel jurnal, kertas seminar dan buku rujukan akademik. Hasil dari analisis tersebut, penemuan mendapati golongan belia Melayu sudah semakin berani untuk mengkritik jika terdapat pemimpin yang tidak faham dengan pandangan mereka. Hal ini juga berkait rapat dengan kecairan sifat feudal dalam jiwa generasi belia Melayu dan disebabkan itu mereka tidak lagi mengambil kisah tentang ketaatan kepada parti politik tetapi lebih kepada untuk mencari penyelesaian sesuatu masalah demi kebaikan negara. Golongan belia Melayu juga merupakan golongan yang paling ramai menjadi pengundi atas pagar dan sekali gus bertindak sebagai penentu kemenangan kepada sesebuah parti politik. Oleh yang demikian dapat dirumuskan bahawa peranan belia penting dalam membentuk sebuah negara yang maju dan berani ke hadapan bagi turut serta dalam proses pembangunan sosioekonomi dan sosiopolitik sesebuah negara.  

Kata kunci: Pilihan Raya Umum ke-14, pola sokongan, belia Melayu, parti politik, pengundi atas pagar, negara maju

The 14th General Election (GE) is one of the elections that has recorded its own history when the BN that ruled for 61 years was successfully defeated for the first time. This article aims to analyze the pattern of Malay youth support in rural areas of Kedah. By using primary data obtained from the results of the 2018 GE from the Election Commission according to the voting channels of the youths consisting of 3 selected rural DUNs in the state of Kedah. The data were analyzed using analytical methods based on the majority won by political parties contesting in the area supported by secondary information, namely past studies from journal articles, seminar papers and academic reference books. The results of the analysis, the findings show the Malay youths are increasingly daring to criticize if there are leaders who do not understand their point of view. It is also closely related to the liquidity of the feudal nature of the soul of youth, and because of that they are no longer concerned about adherence to political parties but rather to find the solution to a problem for the good of the country. Malay youths are also the most crowded group became voters and thus act as a decisive victory to a political party. Therefore, it can be concluded that the role of youth is important in shaping a developed and courageous country to participate in the process of socio-economic and socio-political development of a country.

Keywords: 14th General Election, support pattern, Malay youth, political party, on fence voter, developed country
