Littoral Combat Ship. Unless you’ve been living under a rock recently, you would’ve heard about the latest scandal Malaysia is embroiled in, this time centred around six military ships and 9 billion ringgit. Some have called it 1MDB 2.0, but why and who is entangled in this scandal? We’re joined by Cynthia Gabriel, Human Rights Advocate, Centre to Combat Corruption and Cronyism (C4).
