Drug decriminalisation: Another baby step taken

After months of keeping mum, the government has finally announced the next step in the move to decriminalise drug possession. And yes, you’ve guessed it. It’s to form a special task force to look into it.

In other news, Anwar Ibrahim hits out at politicians who play the race card, saying they are the ones to blame for the tensions in the country; several people, including two DAP assemblymen, have been charged with offences over connections (allegedly, allegedly) to a defunct militant organisation; and, the former 1MDB CEO wishes he could turn back time (as do we all).
