Friday, 17 Feb 2023 8:53 PM MYTfrom being screened in the state, producer Fred Chong confirmed before adding that he intended to appeal the decision.

According to Chong, he hoped the state government would accept the request for them to view the movie in order to be objective. He also said that the trailer does not fully depict the storyline or the message that the movie is trying to convey and has agreed to cut four scenes that were deemed inappropriate.

Chong said that due to the controversy of the trailer that was shown last January, the producer has already lost almost RM500,000 in withdrawn sponsorships. “The production could not afford to invest in buying giant billboards and massive gala nights because there was no budget after the sponsors pulled out.

Chong denied that the trailer was posted on the YouTube platform as a marketing strategy, on the contrary, it was aimed at overseas markets.
