PETALING JAYA: Malaysia should have more open debates between politicians so that the people are able to evaluate their stand, say civil society leaders.
“Political parties can outline their policies for the people to have a better assessment of them before they cast their votes,” said social activist Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.
He believes that controversial issues that do not touch on race and religion should be discussed on televised debates as it would help Malaysians understand the issues better.
