“That’s why I do believe MCMC and PDRM will have to assess the necessity to perhaps set up a special unit… the kind of desperado politics that employ 3R during the campaign cannot be allowed to persist,” he said to reporters after launching the Global Conference on Communication, Culture and Contemporary Media 2023 today.
When asked on Legal and Institutional Reform Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Azalina Othman Said’s suggestion to enact legislation imposing civil penalties on those who played up 3R sentiments, Fahmi said he welcomed that.
