MALAYSIA: Democracy protests to continue
Updated
Civil liberties groups in Malaysia have cast doubt on the fairness of next year's national elections unless significant reforms are made beforehand. They've condemned the Government's action in breaking up a weekend rally for democratic change in the capital Kuala Lumpur. Police used tear gas and water cannons against a crowd the organisers say was between 20 to 30-thousand strong.
Presenter: Karon Snowdon
Speakers: Tian Chua, representing the Coalition for free and fair elections, BERSIR; Khoo Kay Peng, Executive Director of the think-tank, the Socio-Economic Development and Research Institute
