Yes splendid idea, this is exactly the type of campaigning we should implement here. Not having these people using media to just deliver one sided speech amongst their party people and broadcasting that all over the media.
We should have a longer campaign term especially those who intend to compete in the parliamentary seats and compile issues which are of concern to that constitiuency and ask the candidates to debate it over , live!
This is the only way to determine the rightful candidate based on their problem solving skills and how they diplomatically handle issues impromptu.
Not by just delivering speeches prepared by some of your subordinates and giving away goodies when election comes.
I totally agree with this suggestion.

This will never happen as long as BN is in power and as long as they are busy pumping public funds into their families and cronies accounts...

The BN have more faults to hide than ideas to tell...

We must kick BN out to show the rakyat what public opinion, freedom of speech, or human right is all about...

We can turn Lake Gardens (Tasik Perdana) near Parliament to be like Hyde Park in London.. where any one can bring their own soap box to talk to the public... Najib, Rais or KJ can go and give their talk there when the umno has becomes an opposition after the GE...

Aiyo Husam, do orangutan know how to debate.
If demonstration and blogging against the government (Rais said today) is not Malaysian culture, so is debating.
Malaysian culture is lying and corruption.

A debate like this would certainly win the Opposition a two-third majority !!!

How about misinfo-Zam to take on Terasa Kok, and we get to see a broken record turn into charred plastic with fumes the smell of farts to signal a defeat?

It is the voting rakyats interest that debates be shown on live TV, in order that we choose wisely. Right now, the voting rakyat have no clue as to whom we are choosing. Thus, if someone goes under a party's banner, we are expected to choose him, without knowing a thing about him. For all we know, we could be choosing a monkey. Indeed, a political party may actually field a monkey from Zoo Negara, and the rakyat would be expected to vote!

We also need to know where they stand on issues. Right now, the voting rakyat has no idea what everyone has in his or her mind.

It seems ironic that we can see debates on live TV on the US elections, but we can't see our own. Why is that? Could it be that in a battle of wits, BN politicians are totally disarmed? Seems like it, when you see Badawi or Zam speak in public. The fact is that if someone is going to represent Malaysia, he or she should be able to speak and debate properly, and must also know how to handle the media properly.

This is exactly what I suggested in one of my previous comments. It is a good idea and will allow the people to see and decide who will be a better leader.

If the BN has the balls, they should take on the challenge, unless they are afraid of the opposition.

And one more thing, BN dont know how to lie and sound convincing to the rakyat. Imagine in a debate how badly they will be humiliated and on top of that kena taruh by the opposition.
