During the visit, Mmusi Maimane met with several key leaders of the People’s Justice Party (PKR) of Malaysia, including the Chief Minister of Selangor, Azmin Ali, and the President of the Party, Dr. Wan Azizah Wan Ismail. Mmusi Maimane delivered an inspiring speech during the Dinner Talk hosted by KEADILAN. He shared his political experience as leader of the opposition party in South Africa and also shared his views on the current government in South Africa.
