and i think this is a very important day for malaysia historic moment. in fact, how do you think that to his policy is going to react to this, not only to the verdict, but how they actually decide to support all you might say, let him go? well, i think one of the most interesting things has been the splits in the party since this case was 1st reveal in 2015. we saw a split initially at that point of time at that historic deputy prime minister about which basically kicked out of the party to raise concerns about this particular scandal. and it affected the outcome of the election in 2018 of which without plumber party that dominic party, i'm know, lost power. but we've seen now also as things have changed and evolve, it is a country moves towards another election, many new leaders. and i'm the recognize that nat geo has really had held the party hostage. and it's a point of time where we see a new generation of leaders recognizing that the malaysian needs to move on from not cheap. and i'm no itself needs to move on. and i think in we've seen that today w
