Media sosial bukan pentas menghasut, titah Agong

Malaysian Agong, Sultan Ibrahim, has cautioned against using social media to spread hate, incite division, and undermine someone's dignity. As chancellor of the Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), the King emphasized that freedom of expression comes with responsibility, and Malaysians should conduct themselves with decorum and respect towards others on social media platforms.

"Don't use social media as a platform to defame, slander, insult, or humiliate someone," Sultan Ibrahim stated, according to Bernama news agency. "We may have different viewpoints, but it is not an excuse for hostility. We can disagree without being hostile; we can express our opinions respectfully and politely." When criticizing, do so constructively and with humility, and when rebuking, do so with patience, Sultan Ibrahim advised, as reported by Bernama.
