Karim Raslan shines in election night media appearance
GE14 resulted in a political upset for Barisan Nasional, but it also gave the opportunity for some Malaysians to shine in their election-night media performances.
Karim Raslan, CEO KRA Group spoke on BFM's Uncensored 2018 after his live appearance on Astro Awani caught Malaysians' attention during the General Elections May 9.
His candid comments on national television were described by BFM's Melissa Idris as 'refreshing' – and we couldn't agree more.
Mr Raslan is our shortlisted candidate for the Hong Bao Media Savvy Awards 2018 for these three reasons (read on below):

- Message – Mr Raslan is not just well informed. He is able to articulate his messages crisply and clearly.
- Candour – Mr Raslan pulled no punches in making his points. In this era of fake news, authenticity is critical to your credibility. Audiences respond well to speakers who display courage for their convictions. Besides, if you don't stand for something, you'll stand for anything.
- Humility – At the same time, Mr Raslan didn't take himself too seriously. His humour and spontaneity allows him to laugh at himself from time to time.
All these make him a humble candidate for the Hong Bao Media Savvy Awards and, who knows, maybe Dewan Rakyat in the future?
Refreshing indeed!
