It will be organised by news portal Agenda Daily on Aug 20 in Shah Alam, at a venue be announced later.

The debate, to be aired live by a television station belonging to the Media Prima Group, will touch on various current issues with specific focus on matters related to Penang, except for so-called “land scam controversy” which is being heard in court.

“Both sides have agreed on the location (Shah Alam). They have agreed that the debate would be in Bahasa Malaysia, based on the US presidential debate format and be moderated by Datuk Johan Jaafar,” Agenda Daily news editor Hanafiah Man told Bernama Thursday.

However, they had yet to reach a consensus on the title for the debate although they had agreed that the topics should be current and concerning Penang, he added.
