#15 - Talking about Malaysia's Tomorrow with Malaysian Gen-Z's
Episode 15
Monday, 7 March, 2022

In Episode #15 of R+Sessions, we sat down with our local movers and future leaders about Malaysia's tomorrow. We are joined by Alethea Wong (Policy Researcher, Parliament of Malaysia), Benedict Sun (Founder of YPolitics, Political Science Student), and Gwendolyn Chan (Junior Architect, Draf Magazine), a diverse panel that touched on many aspects such as politics, social advocacy, education, and their future hopes. We asked them what does advocacy means for their generation, their thoughts on the implications and shortfalls of the gig economy, and what they think about education's role in moving forward. The conversation started with a large looming cloud overhead but ended with a ray of hope about how Malaysia can progress forward.
