From War To Sport: Can The MOU Change Malaysian Politics?

The tabling of an anti-hopping law during the first session of Parliament in 2022 was one of the key conditions of the MOU between the Federal Government and Pakatan Harapan. Now that the tabling of the bill has been postponed, how does this affect the historic but uneasy truce between two sides of the political divide? We discuss what's holding up progress on the anti-hopping bill and whether Malaysia is ready for new coalition politics with our panel of guests. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
