It's good to hv Two sets of laws one those lower & higher class of positions just to verify Whom V insulted 🙁

Rakyat should slam the IGP Polis Di-Raja for abusing the Sedition Act Laws.. was the Agung really insulted by the Rakyat Personal Opinions! The real people who got insulted were the Bigots UMNO Corrupted Perverted Leaders & Members! IGP why Protect Them? malaysiakini fmtoday

'Those are bias report'. Whose statement was this.

This human rights group is only fight for freedoom to insult others! New malaysia katanya

After being owned for so long, majority of Malaysians can't fully grasp what freedom means. When you are free, that's when you'll create and invent things, reach for limitless boundaries. Rn you are just owned by the institutions created to keep you as sheep.

amnesty If Malaysia is another country that doesn't have any Sultan or Agong, having the Sedition Act cancelled would be the best way. So you are saying that being disrespectful of the Malay Rulers Institution is OK? So where is justice to the Malay culture & tradition?

Sedition Act is such an unclear law that it shouldn't apply.

PH govt, once in power, conveniently forget d promises they made, including loud critics of Sedition Act, mostly from DAP.

Berpada2 la kpd Human Rights group.. takut2 bila tercapai hasrat yg di angkatjulang, nanti memakan diri.. umpama PH, x tersangka menang.. berjanji gunung walhal bukit pun tak terdaki. Imagine there's no law. After all generally, we can still tweet n express our opinion.

Applying the Sedition Act is a step backward to full democracy.

Hello Human Rights, those rascals’ remarks are indeed seditious. On second thought, maybe the Police should charge these rascals as an attempt to wage war agst the YDPA.

Please mention the group name ...please don’t give inaccurate news statement.

freedom of speech in malaysia will only lead to its doom. sedation act is still relevant. Human kind is not always right as to err is human.

Insulting others is not freedom of speech at all. Deserve to be punished accordingly.
