The theme for this year’s Human Rights Day on 10 December focused on equality, inclusion and non-discrimination.

Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Jerald Joseph, a commissioner with the national human rights commission, Suhakam, and Firdaus Husni, chief human rights strategist at the Malaysian Centre for Constitutionalism and Human Rights.
