Yeo Bee Yin gives her personal take on Malaysia's political events of recent years. Raw and real, she shares how it's like to be betrayed by colleagues she trusted.
Did Yeo Bee Yin ever think of quitting? Afterall, she left her high-paying job overseas for Malaysia to serve the nation. Her journey in politics has been tough and difficult (even more so as a woman).
Polin chats with Malaysia's former youngest female minister on her hopes for the country, her struggle navigating through the ups and downs of politics and juggling motherhood through it all.
"I think it is only natural that people feel disillusioned. I remember after the Sheraton Move, it was a few days of feeling that it's surreal. 'Wow, the government is gone'.. In politics a lot of impossible can happen. The good things can happen. The impossible can happen. Possibly, bad things can also happen."
"At least the thing that is in my control is whether I try my best.. We should not look at what is happening now to limit our imagination for this country. This is a great nation... Change is a long process. We must have stamina to finish the race."
Heartfelt. A must listen for every Malaysian.
