A Step Forward In Combatting Sexual Harassment

Guest: Yu Ren Chung, Deputy Executive Director, Women's Aid Organisation (WAO)
After decades of advocacy, the Dewan Rakyat yesterday passed the anti-sexual harassment bill through a voice vote. It most notably establishes a tribunal that will consider any complaints of sexual harassment in a closed-door hearing, with any award by the tribunal deemed to be a court-order; non-compliance could result in a criminal penalty. Does this law go far enough to protect all Malaysians from sexual harassment? We get reactions from Yu Ren Chung of the Women's Aid Organisation.
