KUALA LUMPUR, April 17 — The highly anticipated debate between PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak will take place at 9pm on May 12 at Dewan Tunku Canselor, Universiti Malaya (UM).
In the first joint press statement by Umno and PKR, party representatives, Isham Jalil and Fahmi Fadzil said that the debate will have three parts.
The first segment will discuss the financially-troubled Sapura Energy Berhad, the second will focus on Malaysia’s future in terms of its economy, politics and direction, and the third will involve a question-and-answer session.

“We believe that many are looking forward to this debate.
“We also believe this debate will give Malaysians the opportunity to assess and put forward different ideas, arguments and views, in a neutral environment that reflects a more mature political culture,” said Fahmi.
