On Saturday, about 18,000 citizens gathered for the Turun Anwar rally, aimed to urge Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to step down. This got us thinking about the ways people voice out their concerns and dissatisfaction with government policy or social issues. Do you join protests? Debate with loved ones? Yell into the void? We discuss all this with our listeners, and ask them: If you feel strongly about a government policy or issue, what will you do, will you express yourself politically?
