Can Our Laws Stop Bullying?

Just over two months ago, we saw the death of Zara Qarina Mahathir rock the nation and bring the topic of bullying back into our daily conversations. From school corridors to online platforms, bullying in Malaysia is a deeply rooted problem. While it's often dismissed as 'just part of growing up', the reality is far more serious with long-term effects on mental health, education, and even lives lost. We sit down with SUHAKAM Chief Children’s Commissioner Dr Farah Nini Dusuki to discuss how we address this pressing issue.
