Malaysia is the most politically and economically developed country that does not have a political financing act.
This is the argument by Dr Magnus Ohman, director of the regional Europe office of the International Foundation for Electoral Systems.
He’s right. Neighbouring countries like Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and Australia all have some form of law that regulates political funding. We are an anomaly.
BFM is joined by Ohman who unpacks why this is a problem and why we need a political financing act, right now.
