Feminist Fridays #81: Is Malaysia Baru Safe for Women and Girls?

As the shaping of Malaysia Baru continues, we remember that one of the main thrusts of the Pakatan manifesto was to take care of the welfare, health and rights of women. A forum by The G-Blog, Art For Grabs, and UNICEF Malaysia, is set to discuss a fundamental aspect of women's rights – safety. How safe is Malaysia Baru, for women? How can we make it more conducive for women and girls to thrive in? Joining us to discuss this and more are Emellia Shariff, the Chief Executive Editor of The G-Blog and Chang Mei Yen, from Young Women Making Change Malaysia.
