There’s been plenty of speculation recently surrounding the leadership of Pakatan Harapan. Many say that the sun is setting on Anwar Ibrahim and that the opposition coalition needs a new general to lead them into the battlefield.

On today’s show, Dashran speaks with James Chai, a frequent commenter on Malaysian politics, and the Head of Commercial and Research at INVOKE Solutions, to try and understand the politicking in Pakatan Harapan that led us to this juncture and who could carry on the torch from the man who’s been leading the reformasi movement for more than 20 years.
