MUDA is preparing for its inaugural party elections, scheduled for later this week. We are joined by Amira Aisya, the acting president of MUDA, to delve into the impact of these elections on internal party dynamics. We will also discuss the implications of founding member Syed Saddiq's decision not to contest, and how these events collectively shape the party's future identity leading into the next general elections.

We learn more about these concerns with Bandar Sri Penang Resident's Association chairman Dr K Ganesh and Honorary Secretary of Sahabat Alam Mageswari Sangaralingam. (Starts at 16:57)

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump insists that the war will end soon. We get into all this with Dr James Dorsey, adjunct senior fellow at S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies. (Starts at 6:27)

• Jacinda Ardern leaves New Zealand: The former Prime Minister joins a record number of New Zealanders leaving the country for sites like Australia and the UK which they believe house better costs of living, job opportunities and housing availability. We discuss New Zealand's perennial 'brain drain' problem. (Starts at 0:23)
