New Malaysian ordinance threatens very concept of truth

NewsReporters Without Borders (RSF) calls on the Malaysian government to immediately rescind a so-called “anti-fake news” emergency ordinance that effectively bans any information about the coronavirus pandemic or current state of emergency that is not to its liking. This ordinance constitutes a gross violation of press freedom and another step in the flouting of the democratic process, RSF says.
