Out For The Frogs

There are two remedies practised by governments to kill political frogs. There is the well known anti hopping bill, which would disqualify any MPs who switched parties or were sacked from their party. The second one would be to have recall elections, which gives the right to fire politicians back to the voters. Danesh Prakash Chacko, Director of Tindak Malaysia tells us which works best for parliamentary democracy and political stability in Malaysia. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
