Ooi Kok Hin, Executive Director, Bersih

Malaysia has a rich history of student-led movements. If we look at the period of pre-independence and after independence, student movements were radically progressive, vibrant and strong. While the 80s - 2000s saw suffocation of these movements, there was a revitalisation of student movements in the 2010s.

But what about today?

We speak to Ooi Kok Hin, Executive Director of Bersih. Not only is he an activist himself, he's also someone who has done and continues to do a lot of research and writing on the activism scene in Malaysia.
