The Home Ministry has drawn up a new set of comprehensive guidelines masked as 'self-regulation' for an already restricted newspaper industry - but it is fighting back.
The draft was unveiled by senior ministry officials at a meeting on Monday with unwitting print media representatives in
Although a full day of discussions had been scheduled, the meeting broke down about noon, in the face of protests and heated debate by the media representatives.
For example, articles may not discuss "open lifestyles" beyond religious and societal norms. This means a ban on topics of cohabitation, adultery, homosexuality and counter-culture movements (black metal, punk and skinheads were three examples given).
Dolls, figurines, illustrations and sex aids which portray human genitals may not be published, along with pictures of anyone in suggestive poses, or who is semi-nude or wears skimpy clothing.

I heard Utusan bastards supported every proposal and called a talibanisation of the printing press act. Only Utusan bastards can be given the right to publish racism in the country. Utusan will become the chief propaganda broadsheet (or bullshit) of the country. Utusan bastards, your day will come. It will come when Pakatan comes to power and Utusan will be consignef to the dustbin of history and its journalists face trial for crimes against humanity.
nation leadership gone ku-ku already.... imagine how investors going to promote globally legal breast enlargement products in local market without showing small portion of cleavage...??? probably the advertiser may have to resort to BABBOON wearning bra, with a Roasted-Porky PIG face instead.
its a doomsday for the nation, and malaysian investors will flock Batam and Thailand to sell Tongkat Ali, Tongkat Singh, Tongkat Nyonya and move their investments elsewhere to avoid falling sales and corrupted malaise locals gomen officers.
malaysian PR anyone...., offer to those Kenyans and Somalians???
