GE14 - Will BN Hold on to Power?

Today, the Election Commission meets to decide on the date for Nomination and Polling Day, which will see close to 15 million voters making their choice about who they want to lead them. While some are concerned that the recently passed redelineation exercise has created an even more uneven playing field, the Federal opposition remains committed to the process. Our guest has written on Malaysian politics and in particular how the ruling coalition Barisan Nasional has held on to power by its “extensive manipulation” of the electoral system.

Presented by: Melisa Idris, Sharaad Kuttan, Tan Chung Han
