UMNO GA - U-turn on Sedition

Yesterday, UMNO President Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak dropped a bombshell when he reversed his promise to repeal the Sedition Act, and instead strengthening it with at least two more provisions. While the announcement received a standing ovation from UMNO delegates at the Dewan Merdeka in PWTC, the U-turn was met with mixed reactions from the other Barisan National component parties, the Opposition, and civil liberty groups.

BFM will be reporting live from the UMNO General Assembly at the Putra World Trade Center over the course of the convention.
