2016 - The Challenge Ahead

2016 - The Challenge Ahead

2015 has been a trying year for Malaysian media. It's marked primarily by the suspension of The Edge Financial Daily, the banning of Sarawak Report and a growing strained relationship between government and media. Can both online and print media survive the difficult year to come, in a country with a challenging economy and the constraining space of press freedoms? We explore on where to focus our journalistic lenses, the dollars and cents, and a little bit of wishful thinking.

Here are the segments of the episode:

Asia Calling 1: 2016 Philippines Elections
Asia Calling 2: Women win Peace Awards held in Afghanistan
2016 - The Challenge Ahead

This episode was produced by Aziff Azuddin, Aisyah Tajuddin and Muhammad Haniff Baharudin.
