A Virtual Event For the Marginalised & Oppressed

In conjunction with International Poverty Reduction Day on the 17th of October, Gabungan Marhaen in collaboration with a number of other civil society organizations are organising a virtual event called “Himpunan Marhaen.” The event will take place from the 12th to 17th of October and will highlight a number of issues faced by the working class and those who are in the B40 community. One of the organisers joins us to share what the event is all about.
