MCMC: Activist's Facebook page blocked for public harmony By B Nantha Kumar

Malaysiakini : The MCMC has confirmed that social activist Arumugam Dorasamy’s Facebook account has been blocked from access for internet users in Malaysia.

In an email response to Malaysiakini, MCMC claimed that this was due to the repeated publication of harmful content touching on racial and religious sensitivities, which has the potential to affect societal harmony and public order.

“The action taken by MCMC is based on the presence of harmful elements in the content published and not due to the individual’s status as an activist,” it said.

On the Other Hand : It is non-Muslim religions that are under threat from extremist Islamists operating in the government, on their behalf, and also those holding senior political positions. 

It appears that they have been given a free pass to oppress, to call temples 'haram', ban pig farming, prevent non-Muslim houses of worship from being built, and forcing 'halal' upon non-believers. Where is the divinity in this? I certainly don't see it.

Monkey politicians : Very selective action MCMC. The converts had posted more harmful contents, some politicians included. What about the newbie in Jkom?

Knucklehead2 : Sesat JKom and MCMC in full swing — PMX is marshalling his troops to choke dissent before the mother of all GE16. Blocking Arun’s page under the guise of “public harmony” is nothing more than political censorship dressed up in legalese. 

Najib tried the same playbook — silencing critics, weaponising institutions — and look where he ended up. The rakyat decided then, and they will decide again. 

Your vote will determine whether Malaysia moves forward or sinks deeper into authoritarian rot. No more UMNO. No more PKR. Both are a cancer eating away at this nation! Bersama, we await you!

Geram : MCMC claimed that this was due to the repeated publication of harmful content touching on racial and religious sensitivities, which has the potential to affect societal harmony and public order. What about Akmal Salleh, Billy the Zakir Naik, Reduian Tee, Fudias Wong and Vinos?

Sealthedeal : Exactly. The bias here is unbelievable. The MCMC is a blatant racist arm of government and they must be castigated for it. Outrageous bias yet again. When are they going to block Akmals Facebook. The first job of the new government should be to fire the board of the MCMC.
