We dive into the Kedah state government's ban on 4D lottery outlets in the state. First, we look at commentaries suggesting this move is politically motivated, ahead of the Melaka state polls. Next, we discuss what it means to regulate online gambling. Lastly, a pair of PAS politicians berated a journalist asking them about this - we look into that.
