The article discusses the controversy surrounding Malaysian Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh, who faced criticism from the Malaysian Bar for her perceived hypocrisy in handling seditious posts. The Bar Council criticized Yeoh for not taking similar action against other politicians who had made seditious remarks in the past. This backlash came after Yeoh lodged a police report against a social media user for a post deemed seditious, which targeted her and her family.
