Human rights: 2024 reality check

Two years into the “Madani” (civil and compassionate) administration, and promises of reform have often taken centre stage.

Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris talks to Suaram executive director Sevan Doraisamy and the human rights group’s documentation and monitoring coordinator, Jernell Tan.
