News Summary:
“Criticism of the government or me is fine — let it go through the PM”

• Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated in Subang Jaya that he does not agree with arrests or prosecutions solely for criticizing the government or his administration.
  
• He specifically mentioned individuals like activist Fahmi Reza, who was arrested over satirical caricatures mocking political appointments—Anwar believes such actions should be allowed.
  
• However, Anwar stressed that criticism involving the “3Rs” (Raja, Agama, Bangsa) — namely the Malay rulers, religion, and race — falls outside his authority, and falls under constitutional jurisdiction, such as the Council of Rulers.
  
• In the same statement, he highlighted that Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act remains a valuable tool for addressing issues including obscenity, cyberbullying, and defamation, citing the tragic case of influencer A. Rajeswary (“Esha”) as justification for keeping some safeguards.

Context
He essentially supports the idea that reasonable criticism—including satire—shouldn't be penalized. However, content that touches on royalty, religion, or race, which are sensitive legal boundaries in Malaysia, remains protected. He also underscores that any actions taken outside civilian oversight (such as through the Council of Rulers or via existing legislation) are not within his control.

Here's mine:
Tipu, kencing, belit dan auta,
Zaman Madani jadi budaya,
Janji manis semanis kata,
Rakyat merana mereka ketawa.

Konon reformis, pejuang wibawa,
Lama di jalan kini di takhta,
Suara dulu tak sama nada,
Kiri cakap lain, kanan buat apa?
