Why do the wicked prosper?

The prophet Habakkuk is the only one whose book isn't about a message God had sent to people and the prophet is conveying the message. Instead, it is the prophet himself struggling with "Why do the wicked prosper? Is God going to do anything about it?"

In 1980, 2100 Productions of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship made a multimedia presentation on this book. Unfortunately, the original slides and presentation for this is lost, but they have put the soundtrack up here, so I have extracted some of the audio and put together a new presentation, based on the current situation in Malaysia.

Habakkuk's question is still as relevant in 2019 Malaysia, as it was relevant in 1980 USA, and 7th century BC Judah.
