Description

“Simon Says” is a deep dive into the topsy-turvy world of Malaysian politics and why it matters. Follow host Simon Yeo as he gives his perspectives and decodes current political and government news for you. If you have ever wondered about some of the following, this show is for you! “Why does boring history matter to politics?” “What’s Malaysia’s future going to be like? Should I even start a family?” “How can I tell if what the media is telling me is true or not?” “How can we, the people, get more involved?”
