“Young people don’t know anything about politics”, we’re probably all familiar with this backhanded quip from the boomers.
One politician in particular, probably hears it on a daily basis. In this episode of Head Over Heels, we invite MP Syed Saddiq to take on the hot seat and share with us his stories, experiences and journey as a young politician.
From addressing dating rumours and talking about his young and rebellious days to discussing women in politics, the Malaysian parliament and policy-making processes - we unpack it all with the party president of MUDA.
It’s raw, it’s real, lets get Head Over Heels!
