National broadcaster Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) could serve as a debate platform between lawyer Eric Paulsen and the country’s Islamic department on his claims that it promotes extremism, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek said today.
"Freedom of expression is not just expressing one sentence. You have to articulate it so that the people understand and can explain it further.
"In the context of freedom of expression, I feel there is no problem (for a live debate over RTM). We can ask the lawyer to come to RTM. If the Islamic Development Department of Malaysia (Jakim) agrees, I have no issue with it," he told reporters after launching the new corporate identity of Pos Malaysia Kuala Lumpur.
Lawyers for Liberty co-founder Eric Paulsen was arrested last Monday and released on police bail after a two-day remand over an investigation into his tweet that Jakim promoted extremism through Friday sermons. – Bernama
