Ep. 2: Covering the Refugee Issue Basics with Elise Arya Chen

What is a refugee and how are they different from economic migrants? How are their lives governed in Malaysia? What are the priorities in the campaigns for their rights? We go over the basics with Elise Arya Chen, program officer at Tenaganita.

Note: Host Nadine accidentally makes up a word: “persecu-ing.” If you hear that (good listening skills!), what she meant was “fleeing.”
