EXCLUSIVE | The United States is "puzzled" with Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's decision to backtrack and retain the Sedition Act, said its ambassador to Malaysia Joseph Y Yun: http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/282608
"When it was announced that the government will repeal the Sedition Act and replace it with the proposed National Harmony Act in 2012, it was very much welcomed by the international community.
"So we were a little bit puzzled why the Malaysian government announced that it will not be repealed and instead will be strengthened," he added in an interview with Malaysiakini.
