(2012) The Audacity To Think

This book represents the rising voices in the political arena, which introduces a new discourse beyond the usual race-religion rhetoric so prevalent in Malaysian politics.

(2018 )Being Malaysia

This book consists of three parts. Part One of the book introduces the historical development of Malay identity politics and Malay anxiety, with its historical roots tied back to colonialism. Part Two seeks readers to demand and vote for social change in order to achieve an ideal society where democracy, good governance, human rights, and justice exists. Part Three supports the notion of making politics boring again by focusing on the work needed to achieve consistency and efficiency in governance, instead of hopping on to the next “big idea”.

(2021) Hang Tuah: Adiwira Bangsa

This is a contemporary socio-political critique of the Malay classic, Hikayat Hang Tuah. A modern perspective is contrasted to challenge UMNO’s conservative mould of Hang Tuah as one who swears blind fealty to the Sultan. A new narrative is put forward that if Hang Tuah was alive today, he would be a global citizen who not only celebrates diversity and commits to learning, but he would be one that fights against kleptocracy and injustice.
