Consider This: Parliamentary Reform (Part 1) — Reviving the Parliamentary Services Act

In 1992, the Malaysian government under Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, repealed the Parliamentary Services Act—placing Parliament services under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister’s Department. Now, the current government has promised to table a new PSA in this parliamentary session, to restore Parliament’s independence. What does a truly independent and effective parliament look like—and why should it matter to you? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Thomas Fann, Founding Member of Projek SAMA, and former chairperson of BERSIH.
