Bar Chats: EnviroRights

Through this, we hope you can learn what is the most effective way to do things.   Moderator: Seira Sacha Abu Bakar   Panellists: Lavanya Iyer Justine Vaz Peter Kallang

'The Law' can sound abstract especially in terms of how it protects the environment.   In this episode of #BarChats​, we look at this question in a few ways.

Does Malaysia actually have laws protecting the environment?  In Episode 1 of #BarChats​, we discuss our current laws as well as the gaps that still need to be addressed.   Moderators:   Kiu Jia Yaw Chin Li Jin   Panellists: Prof Emer Datuk Dr Hj Shad Saleem Faruqi Preetha Sankar

Cases such as river pollution in Sg Kim Kim and Sg Gong has become a recurring event. We're all affected by it, but sometimes we wonder: can we actually do something about it?   In Episode 0, we kick-off #BarChats​ by addressing the first question we might have: Do we have the right to be angry? If so, what can we do about it?   Moderator: Norman Goh   Panellists: Tan Sri Dr Salleh Mohd Noor Jessica Ram Binwani Wong Siew Lyn
