In conjunction with the World Press Freedom Day on 3 May, approximately 30 people sat at KLCC park and read the newspapers upside down. The activity that was held yesterday afternoon lasted for 15 minutes.
Shoppers and tourists were baffled with their actions to read the newspapers upside down. Those who participated in the event sat on the stairs along the way to the park. According to chairman of Writers Alliance for Media Independence (WAMI), Wong Chin Huat said their actions were meant to convey that there is a lack of press freedom in the country.
Hence, by reading the newspapers upside down, they were keen to imply that there is a lack of press freedom in the newspapers. Wong said they do not intend to highlight any particular media in Malaysia.
He stressed that people can decide and observe the various media channels in Malaysia. Thus, media have to improve on the professional standards.
