Consider This: Government-Opposition MoU (Part 3) — Can Political Stability Still Be Negotiated?

The proposed MoU offers Constituency Development Funds to Opposition MPs — on the condition that they refrain from engaging in race, religion, and royalty (3R) issues. Perikatan Nasional, however, has flatly rejected the terms, and the offer seems to have only led to more division rather than unity. Is inter-coalition cooperation for political stability still on the table? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks to Independent Analyst, Arinah Najwa Ahmad Said.
