MAB - Have Trustees Failed?

On May 16, protesters gather in front of the Malaysian Association for the Blind (MAB). These members of the visually-impaired community demanded the resignation of the association’s top management and questioning management of its funds which have dropped from RM11 to six million. Today we ask if the grievances about bad governance are well-founded, and what can be done to resolve problems.


This is a report by Kelvin Yee.

Note: A portion of the interview was removed at the request of an interviewee after it aired.
