Consider alternatives to closure, HR minister tells Utusan | Malay MailKUALA LUMPUR, Oct 9 — The owner of Utusan Malaysia should reconsider ceasing operations, Human Resources Minister M. Kulasegaran said today ahead of the Malay daily’s imminent closure. He said alternatives should be considered to keep the longest running newspaper in the country afloat and... DAMN mkula Pla lah, stop this hypocrisy at once. Everyone and his uncle Ali knows Utusan was regarded as very racist, bigoted and twisted the news to favour Ketuanist UMNO. Their closure is a market decision - no money, no thalk! Stop the crocodile tears!
