We have all heard politicians talk about helping people, but what happens when someone actually means it?
Dr Jeyakumar Devaraj is not your typical politician. He is not slick, not hungry for power and definitely not here to sell you a dream. In fact, he stepped away from the noise because he couldn’t stand how broken the system is.. and how comfortable we have all become living in it.
This podcast talks about the messiness of politics in Malaysia. The lies we tell ourselves about progress. The strange obsession our leaders have with looking rich while the country crumbles quietly in the background.
But it is not all doom. We also talk about hope; real, gritty, imperfect hope. The kind that lives in ordinary people doing quiet things.
This one is not for people who love the status quo. It is for the ones who know something is off and are ready to think about what comes next.
