Malaysia: Stop Restricting Freedom of Expression

Everyone has the right to seek, receive and impart information and ideas without fear or interference. 

The right to freedom of expression is important for the personal development and dignity of every individual, and it is essential for the fulfilment of other human rights. However, Malaysia retains multiple pieces of legislation that continue to repress and silence Freedom of Expression. 

Sign our petition and ask Malaysia to repeal laws that restrict freedom of expression.

Demand Justice for Teoh Beng Hock – End Impunity and Ensure Accountability Within Law Enforcement Agencies 

On 16 July 2009, Teoh Beng Hock, a 30-year-old political aide, was found dead under suspicious circumstances on the fifth-floor rooftop of Plaza Masalam, beneath the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Selangor office, where he had been interrogated overnight as a witness in an investigation into alleged misuse of state funds. He was subjected to prolonged, late-night questioning without rest—an oppressive and unlawful practice. His death sparked national and international outrage, raising serious concerns about abuse of power, custodial violence, and the lack of accountability within law enforcement agencies.

Sign the petition and urge the Malaysian authorities to take immediate, transparent and meaningful action to ensure justice for Teoh Beng Hock.
