Police reports lodged against Rais, TV3 over keling issue

Police reports were lodged against Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Dr Rais Yatim and television station TV3 today over the controversy surrounding the inclusion of the word ' keling ' in a dictionary by Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP).

Keadilan Youth exco S Manikavasagam accused Rais of sedition for allegedly describing the use of the derogatory term in the dictionary as an insignificant matter. The minister's remarks were also alleged to be in contempt of court since legal action has been initiated against DBP.

TV3 was cited in another report for conducting a survey deemed to be 'seditious'.
