PM's Resignation - Keeping the Reform Agenda Alive

Prior to his resignation, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and the PN cabinet openly offered numerous reforms in exchange for support from other MP's. These included setting a two-term limit for the Prime Minister, an anti-party hopping law, and lowering the voting age. The offer was rejected, but as we move forward as a nation, how can we keep the reform agenda alive? What are the key issues that the next government must prioritise, for the benefit of all Malaysians? We discuss this and more with Firdaus Husni, the Chief Human Rights Strategist at the Malaysian Centre for Constitutionalism and Human Rights (MCCHR).
