KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 — Islamist party PAS and its president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang were found to be the most strident in inciting ethnic-based narratives on social media in the lead-up to the 15th general election , an independent report revealed today.

“So these actors are fueling hate narratives, as well as user-generated comments and they were silent, so we can say they are complicit since they did not call out. With a total of 99,563 unique messages on social media analysed between October 20 and November 26 last year, the report found that “a significant majority” of social media posts comprised ethnic and religion-based narratives.

Wathshlah said Abdul Hadi himself was the sole individual with two posts reaching 'Level Three' severity, for his posts which were categorised as containing dehumanising and hostile language. ― Picture by Sayuti Zainudin
