Malaysiakini was BARRED from covering the meeting between Indonesian President Joko Widodo and Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak at the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in Putrajaya, DESPITE the MALAYSIAN authorities having issued passes to the news portal.
Security officers told the Malaysiakini reporter thst even though Malaysiakini has been issued special media passes, the reporter is NOT allow...ed to enter the PMO “ UPON HIGHER ORDERS".
Malaysiakini was issued the media passes last week for the visit by Joko after an official application to the Information Ministry.
The passes were signed by the Head of the Security Officers of the PMO.
The pass tag issued to this reporter is numbered MD0204 and stated “this pass is an OFFICIAL document during the visit and to be worn prominently at all the times”.
It also stated that the pass is valid during the period of visit only.
One nation marching FORWARD in 21st Century to being a more open transparent and democratic country amongst the international community of civilised nations.
WHILST the other is being driven BACKWARDS in time to being a parochially and religiously bigoted and racially-divided country of intimidated people generally associated with the much-despised dictatorial and masochistic community of pariah nations.
