00:10 - News: March 8 2019 marks the 5th year since the disappearance of MH370 which vanished on its way to Beijing with 239 people on board. The government is willing to consider searching for the missing plane if organisation could make a convincing case to find it. Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad met with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte in Manila yesterday to discuss Malaysia-Philippine relationship, like claims by groups in the Philippines over Sabah, and the security threats in the southern Philippines. Dato’ Sri Anwar Ibrahim has finally declared assets worth RM10.7 million which includes land, property, and investments.

03:12 - Discrimination in Recruitment: The Center for Governance and Political Studies, (Cent-G.P.S.), unveiled a report that looks into racial prejudices in recruitment in the private sector. We speak to Zaidel Baharuddin, Researcher at CENT-GPS on the details of the survey.
