The Politics of Paraquat examines the history, dangers and efforts to phase out the use of paraquat in Malaysia. Paraquat is a deadly poison and was widely used in plantations in Malaysia. It was first banned in Malaysia in 2002, reinstated when the ban was lifted in 2006 due to industry pressure, then banned again in 2020. The Politics of Paraquat shares the backdrop to the campaign mounted by public interest groups to ban paraquat in Malaysia.
