Back in Malaysia, concertgoers have already been lamenting that so many international artists skip over the country during their international tours, a trend the fracas over Matty Healy looks likely to exacerbate. Meanwhile, observers and activists warn that with upcoming state elections in August, conservative-leaning politicians are likely to piggyback on the incident to promote their anti-LGBT agenda. Conservative leaders have even publicly made peace with the idea that their principles may come at the cost of being able to host shows and events like the Good Vibes Fest. But it’s more than just concerts that the country risks losing out on.
