A Call For Calm In the KK Mart Controversy

Headlines have been awash with the KK Mart controvesy, with the latest being that a branch in Bidor, Perak, was targeted by a failed Molotov cocktail, even as charges have also been levied against KK Mart's founder, and director respectively. As the news continues highlighting this issue, we play some clips from Khairy Jamaluddin and Shahril Hamdan's Keluar Sekejap episode, and ask our listeners how to de-escalate tensions, and discuss how we can build bridges in a multicultural society.
