The issue of sexual harassment in the country's entertainment industry should not be turned into a polemic but the focus should instead be on further action to be taken as it is an offence under the law, said Communications and Multimedia Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa.

He said sexual harassment was not a trivial matter as it could also cause the victim to be traumatised and suffer from mental health disorders.
