We’ve brought you stories about raids on gay clubs, caning of gay men, Pride events, lesbian dating apps being shut down and court rulings in favour of same-sex marriage. And that’s all just in the past 3 months. Welcome to the good, the bad and the ugly of LGBT rights in Asia.
- What is behind the upswing in persecution of gay men in places like Indonesia and Malaysia?
- What role does the international community play in effecting positive change?
- Who will be the first country in Asia to achieve marriage equality?
Bringing her immense knowledge of LGBTI rights across the Asia-Pacific region, we were joined in the studio by Dr Paula Gerber from Kaleidoscope Australia Human Rights Foundation (www.kaleidoscopeaustralia.com).
