PETALING JAYA: Journalists need more assurances from the government that press freedom will be protected despite Putrajaya’s recent calls for the media to report without fear or favour, says the National Union of Journalists Malaysia (NUJM).

Its president Farah Marshita Abdul Patah acknowledged Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s call for journalists to remain vocal against the government.
