 MINISTER for Law and Institutional Reform Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said has proposed a new “State and Nation Act” to control provocations against race, religion and royalty (the 3Rs).

Though the nitty-gritty details of the law have not been worked out, it appears that she is proposing a non-punitive, civil and expeditious approach to tackling hate-filled and mischievous comments against the 3Rs.
