Why doesn't this law apply to all journalism in Malaysia? I read so much fake crap in your newspapers every day selling sensationalism instead of facts!

Dah klu reporter pun buat berita x betul, ini memalukan kaum kerabat reporter sendiri....ini lah contoh terbaik bg kaum kerabat nya......

It's a figurative statement implying that we are still allowing mainland Chinese into the country despite the serious repercussion of the virus. Is that wrong?

hantar dia masuk sungai buloh!!!

When one wins award superhero sets in. She thinks she's immune especially when she's chasing after sensationalism

Dapat award byk pun tak tau beza berita fitnah dan betul?

The law must be strict on such matter. Trial her !

Cheap thrill. Or what? Dunno la anymore whatever

Public mischief?, she was being racist, fear mongering and inciting hatred.
