Migrant Doco (Part 2) - Economic Anxieties Driving Xenophobia?

Over the last five months, Malaysia has seen a dramatic shift in its politics, the unfolding of a public health crisis, and an economic downturn threatening the livelihoods of millions.

Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Ahmad Fuad Rahmat, Assistant Professor of Media, Languages and Culture at the University of Nottingham Malaysia.
