[25 May 2015] * This written statement is issued, unedited, in the language(s) received from the submitting non-governmental organization(s). GE.15-09265 (E) A/HRC/29/NGO/87 Crackdown on freedom of expression and assembly in Malaysia There has been a serious regression in Malaysia's democratic space in 2015, with the government's crackdown on freedom of speech and assembly, predominantly through the use of the Sedition Act 1948, Peaceful Assembly Act 2012, and various sections of the Penal Code. Freedom of speech and expression is enshrined in Article 10(1)(a) of the Federal Constitution of Malaysia. However, the guarantee of such a right is severely limited and qualified by broad provisions in Article 10(2)(a), which stipulates that Parliament may impose “such restrictions as it deems necessary or expedient in the interest of the security of the Federation or any part thereof”. Similarly, the freedom of assembly is enshrined in Article 10(1)(b) of the Constitution, but is restricted through Article 10(2), 10(4) and Article 149 of the Constitution.

GE.19-00601(E) A/HRC/40/53/Add.2 I. Background 1. At the request of the Special Rapporteur in the field of cultural rights, Ms. Karima Bennoune, the Government of Malaysia invited the Special Rapporteur to conduct a country visit to Malaysia from the 11th to 22nd September 2017. In accordance with the mandate of the Special Rapporteur, the purpose of her visit was to examine how cultural rights and diversity are preserved, promoted and protected in Malaysia’s multi-cultural society. During her mission, the Special Rapporteur had the opportunity to meet with as many as 62 government agencies both at the federal and state levels, as well as a wide array of civil societies, activists and independent experts. The Government of Malaysia takes note of her insights and subsequent recommendations. 2. As acknowledged by the Special Rapporteur, Malaysia underwent the 14th General Elections on 9 May 2018, which brought into power a new Government. The peaceful transition of power proves that the adequate systems are in place to protect and promote democracy and the rights of all Malaysian citizens, regardless of their racial, cultural and religious backgrounds.

  • Malaysia's Brief, Rich History of Suspending Newspapers the Malaysian Insider July 27, 2015 by Anisah Shukry
    Malaysia’s brief, rich history of suspending newspapers The Malaysian Insider July 27, 2015 By Anisah Shukry The Edge Weekly and The Edge Financial Daily's three-month suspension starting today marks the government's continued tradition of clamping down on print media, a practice which began nearly three decades ago with the infamous Ops Lalang of 1987. The Edge joins The Star, The Sunday Star, Sin Chew Jit Poh, Watan, Sarawak Tribune, Guang Ming Daily, Berita Petang Sarawak, The Weekend Mail, Makkal Ossai, The Heat and Thina Kural, which had their publishing permits revoked for reasons ranging from national security to technical issues. Most papers survived their suspension, even as it dragged on for months, with journalists reportedly taking up part-time jobs to support their families until the newsrooms reopened. But some newspapers never recovered, while others never saw their suspensions lifted. The Edge, however, which is being punished for its reportage on debt-ridden state investment firm 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), is fighting this. This morning, The Edge will file a leave application for a judicial review. Speaking to reporters after briefing The Edge's staff, hours after the suspensions were announced on Friday, The Edge Media Group publisher and group CEO Ho Kay Tat said: "We will be filing it on Monday and we hope to get a speedy hearing." "We must file a judicial review as a matter of principle because we don't think the suspension is justified," he said. Ho also said The Edge would continue reporting on 1MDB through its online platforms despite the suspension of the two papers.

    Suara Rakyat Malaysia (SUARAM) is committed to defending and campaigning for human rights in Malaysia and other parts of the world. The organisation began in 1989 as a campaign body for the abolition of the Internal Security Act (ISA) in the aftermath of the infamous Operasi Lalang when 106 Malaysians were detained without trial. Since then, it has evolved into the leading human rights organisation in Malaysia, committed to protecting, preserving and promoting human rights.

When he first came to power in 2009, Najib Razak introduced several reforms in an attempt to win back votes after the fiasco for the ruling coalition in the 2008 general election. This attempt at reform has been reversed after yet another debacle for BN in the 2013 general election, epitomized by the about-turn decision on the promise to repeal the Sedition Act, with the Prime Minister seemingly bowing down to demands of extremist groups for his own political survival and bent on teaching dissenting voters a lesson.

While the two countries record significant differences in contexts and background, the similarities are equally striking. The following is an article that is based on a two-country study undertaken by the author to unpackage and explore the "1Malaysia" Programme that was launched in 2009 following the election of Malaysian Prime Minister’s, Tun Najib Razak into his first term in office. The author spent a two week resident attachment at the 1Malayisa Foundation in Malaysia in the summer of 2012 to study further the facets of the governance programme that had been formulated with the intention of resolving the ethnic tensions that have plagued Malaysia since it gained independence, or Merdeka.
