Malaysia Emphasizes 24-Hour Deadline for Government Information Dissemination

In a recent press conference, Malaysian government officials stressed the critical need for rapid information dissemination to avoid public confusion. The Jabatan Penerangan (JAPEN) has been tasked with ensuring that all essential information reaches the community within 24 hours of its release. "We have 1,878 Madani communities," stated a government official, emphasizing the scale of the challenge. The urgency is driven by concerns that delays could lead to the spread of misinformation and public unrest. The official further added, "It's crucial to ensure that these communities receive accurate and timely information." This initiative underscores the government's commitment to transparency and effective communication.
