malaymail.com

Umno Youth chief Akmal Saleh demanded an in-person apology from Malaysiakini at the Umno General Assembly for publishing a pig photo with a caption about the party. The news portal mistakenly paired a pig farming image with a caption about Umno's direction in the unity government. Malaysiakini has since apologized and will send editors to the assembly. Malaysiakini called the incident a "most regrettable error" and is conducting an internal review to prevent future mistakes. The erroneous posts have been removed.
