Since his ousting from UMNO, there has been nonstop speculation about where Khairy Jamaluddin may head to next. And with the state elections around the corner, and some much-publicised meetings with both the PM Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, and Perikatan Nasional chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, headlines have been a-swirling. We catch up with Dr. James Chin to talk about all this, but also open up the conversation to ask what our listeners think Khairy's next move should be, and whether they're invested in this at all.
