PETALING JAYA: A politician’s call for a reshaping of Malaysian political culture has prompted an analyst to remark that voters have as big a role to play as politicians in bringing about the needed changes.
How a politician conducts himself is often dictated by what he believes his base wants, according to Oh Ei Sun of the Singapore institute of International Affairs.
He was commenting on a statement Pandikar Amin Mulia made during an online forum on Tuesday. The former Dewan Rakyat speaker said true reforms could not be achieved until there was a shift away from the treatment of politics as a zero-sum game in which there must always be winners and losers.
Oh said he agreed that such a reshaping of political culture was needed.
