Marina Mahathir, campaigning columnist and daughter of the former Prime Minister of Malaysia Mahathir Mohammed, talks to Carrie Gracie on The Interview
Campaigning columnist Marina Mahathir
Marina Mahathir has spent her career fighting for the rights of minorities, whether AIDS sufferers or Muslim women. Outspoken and controversial, she describes how she has been declared a danger to Islam by Conservatives in her native Malaysia, despite being a practising Muslim herself.
But being the offspring of a famous person makes a difference. To what extent has it affected her work?
She talks about stereotypes, divorce, and how her father has moulded her outlook on life.
