The Best and Worst of Museums

The Best and Worst of Museums

National Unity Minister Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang believes museums can foster unity among Malaysians, calling them custodians of the country’s common heritage. While we can perhaps agree that learning more about one's shared history can make us feel united, do Malaysians actually care about museums enough to go visit one? What makes a museum enjoyable and interesting? We discuss all of this, with our listeners.
