Taib’s family suspends New Sarawak Tribune editor

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 2 – The executive editor of the New Sarawak Tribune, a newspaper controlled by the family of Tan Sri Taib Mahmud, was suspended for two weeks yesterday, after the daily published a front page story suggesting the chief minister had no intention of stepping down after 29 years in power.

Paul Si, a veteran journalist, had been at the helm of the daily since May, and had been roped in to help reverse flagging circulation.

But it is understood the decision to publish a story from national news agency Bernama entitled “Is Taib testing the waters?” which suggested the chief minister’s recent remarks about considering calling time on his stint at the top was just calculated political move, enraged the newspaper’s owners.

Taib’s youngest daughter Hanifah has now taken charge of editorial control of the newspaper and is personally approving all stories.

The Bernama story had quoted a number of political analysts questioning Taib’s intentions.

wow...i know malaysian newspapers are controlled by the government..but this is the most flagrant act ever that highlights this fact.

if it's an article from an international news agency..then at least i can understand if he kena suspended la. but this article was from the NATIONAL news agency.
