On Polling Day: Malaysians Remember 9 May 2018

This is a free e-book to document the 14th Malaysian General Election. At the time of conception, the book had no inkling of the earth-shattering, AG-firing and PM-kicking outcome and we have stayed true to that setting. All stories were written within 24 hours of polling day. It is a modest attempt at documentation of the events as experienced by the writers, and as the situation unfolded.
