Three more questioned by MCMC over fake racial post


PUTRAJAYA: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) recorded the statements of three more individuals on Wednesday (Sept 3) following a false, racially charged post on social media linked to the state-level National Day celebration in Ipoh, Perak.

MCMC said the post, which falsely claimed that a Chinese Malaysian woman was involved in the incident, was untrue and could potentially incite racial tensions and negative perceptions within the community.
