Nurul Izzah's first-ever podcast

For the 11th Middle Malaysia podcast, media consultant Oon Yeoh speaks to Nurul Izzah Anwar, the MP for Lembah Pantai who is facing a major obstacle in the upcoming general election because there has been a significant increase in the number of postal voters in her constituency.

She is also likely to be challenged by an Umno minister with a powerful arsenal of machinery, money and media.

Nurul Izzah talks about election fraud and how she believes GE13 will be the dirtiest election ever. This is why Bersih is such an important movement.

Although she was present at Bersih 3.0, and was actually on the same truck that S Ambiga was on when the Bersih co-chairperson gave her speech, very few people noticed her presence because she kept a very low profile at the event. In the podcast, she explains why.

Nurul Izzah addresses some tough and controversial issues - whether it was wrong for the people to storm the barricades as well as whether she believes her father, Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim, gave orders to breach the barricades.

Like many people, she expects the election to be held in June. While she senses that there's good support on the ground, at the same time she's fully aware that it's hardly a level-playing field in the electoral contest.

Still, she's confident and she explains why that is so in her first-ever podcast.
