Is Malaysia’s electoral system truly fair or are the boundaries being redrawn to shape political outcomes?
TheGoodCastShow sits down with Danesh Chacko from Tindak Malaysia to understand the highly controversial redrawing of electoral boundaries in Sarawak and why it matters more than most people realise.
From the mechanics of how electoral boundaries are drawn, to the real-world impact on voting power, Danesh breaks down:
Why the upcoming redelineation could be a defining test for Malaysia’s Electoral Commission
How gerrymandering and malapportionment can influence election results
The role of the prime minister and Parliament in approving or modifying boundary changes
Concerns surrounding leaked proposals and whether new seats could favour certain political parties
Why urban versus rural representation remains one of the biggest challenges in ensuring fair elections
