For the first time in Malaysia, the book compiles the profiles of all 222 Members of Parliament (MPs) who were elected in 2008. These profiles were obtained through The Nut Graph's MP Watch: Eye on Parliament online project, and provide voters with a sense of how their respective MPs would vote on issues that affect Malaysia's democracy.
Specifically, it clues Malaysians in on what they can expect of their MPs with regards to issues such as detention without trial, the "Islamic versus secular state" issue, and the freedom of information. It also delves into the challenges MPs face that prevent them from fulfilling their legislative roles as fully as possible.
Additionally, the book highlights MPs' suggestions across the political divide for strengthening parliamentary democracy in Malaysia.
