Council slammed over move to remove 'sexy posters'


The Kota Baru Municipal Council has kicked up another storm by telling salon operators to remove posters of women without head covers.

KOTA BARU: PAS Supporters Congress chairman Hu Pang Chaw has criticised the Kota Baru Municipal Council for telling hair salon operators to remove so-called “sexy posters” from their shops.

“As far as I am concerned, a by-law was passed 13 years ago requiring all Malay models to wear headscarves in advertisements. So, it does not apply to non-Muslims,” he said.
