Talkback Tuesday: Cancellation of FMFA 2014 - Whose responsibility is it to ensure the safety of concertgoers?

On Talkback Tuesday today, we spoke about the cancellation of Future Music Festival Asia 2014 in Kuala Lumpur. Last Saturday, the third and final day of FMFA was cancelled after it was confirmed that  6 people had died , with 3 more in critical condition due to a methamphetamine overdose (as reported in The Star). The cancellation left thousands of upset ticket holders, and both the organiser and police explained in a statement following the cancellation that they had strong police and medic presence, and arrests were even made during the fest on those in possession of drugs. We asked our callers: Who should be responsible for the safety of concertgoers?
