Freedom of Press Index for Malaysia

Freedom of Press Index for Malaysia

'Freedom of Press' bit of democracy Malaysian style is under attack. International NGO for journalists (RSF) ranked Malaysia's freedom of press sliding down to a record low.

M'sia records worst-ever ranking on press freedom

• Jan 30, 13 11:15PG

The state of press freedom in Malaysia has hit a historic low, with the country being ranked No. 145 in the latest World Press Freedom Index – the worst since the annual index was begun in 2002.

Reporters sans Frontières (RSF) – or Reporters Without Borders – attributed the poor standing to issues linked to the police crackdown on the Bersih 3.0 protest last April, as well as repeated censorship and the undermining of basic freedoms, in particular the right to information.

In 2010, Malaysia had stood at No. 141, but then clawed its way up to No. 122 in 2011-2012.

The authors listed Bangladesh, Libya, Kyrgyzstan, Thailand, Indonesia and Brunei above Malaysia in the current index of 179 countries.

Singapore was ranked No. 149, while Burma went up 18 spots to No. 151 after the "dramatic changes" of last year.

**********

The quick blame would be against the Federal Government. However, Prime Minister Dato' Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak's leadership provided a lot of leeway for 'Freedom of Press', as long as it does not contravene the laws.

He abolished the Printing and Press Act, which amongst other things require newspapers to renew their annual license with Ministry of Home Affairs.

The fact is that, it is the Oppositions who are practicing retrains against 'Freedom of Press'. Their leaders like Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim and DAP Secretary General restrained accredited journalists from certain media to attend their media conferences, especially when they are unable to  provide reasonable answers to questions posed.

On top of that, they habitually take journalists and the media they represent to court.

It started a series of articles written by other bloggers about Johor and drew even more attention, which many talked about. Enough to be asked to 'come for dinner '.
