Nick Adams boasted that he drove a waitress out of her job just because he disagreed with her cause! How can he be so cruel and heartless?

The US Ambassadorship to Malaysia is not a paid holiday posting for any loyalists nor any Tom, Dick, or Nick.

It's for a professional diplomat.

I urge Malaysians to continue the pressure and send a clear message that Malaysia will not welcome envoys who insult its dignity, faiths, and values.

Sharing my call-to-action on a recent @bfmradio.bsky.social interview:

"Don't wait for anyone. Get started, get involved, stay engaged, and let’s build the Malaysia we want—one that is democratic, just, and compassionate for everyone."

I discussed recently the realities and challenges of advocating for progressive change in Malaysia set against the backdrop of "New Global Disorder" and rising populism in many developed democracies. (1/2)
