More Inclusivity Needed In People's Movements

A recent article by S. Arutchelvan from Parti Sosialis Malaysia calls for political movements here to better reflect the needs of every Malaysian. We unpack this by first looking at the concerns of the rakyat who live and work outside of our urban centres. Then, we discuss the needs of workers, especially in the context of a difficult year. Finally, youth movements are viewed as the future - but how can they be more inclusive?
