In conversation with Gregory Ho Wai Son and Lim Han Hsuen from Khazanah Research Institute over their latest research, Living Next to Poor Housing, we explore the much debated topic of 'Not In My Backyard', or NIMBY. We ask, what actually is the NIMBY phenomenon, and what are the implications of low cost housing projects for certain communities that give rise to it? And ultimately, how might NIMBY be reconciled with the necessary progress happening in terms of Malaysia's economic development? Image credit: Shutterstock.com
