Three-Hour Deadline: Malaysian Politician Stresses Swift Response to Online Criticism

In a rapidly evolving media landscape, the speed of response to public perception is crucial. Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, during the BN's fourth forum, 'What We Can Learn From Canada, Singapore and Australia,' stressed the need to address negative social media narratives within three hours. He stated, "Social media must be used as the main basis, and any issue, especially negative perceptions, must be addressed within three hours." This highlights the importance of proactive communication in maintaining public trust. The video from Berita RTM showcases this urgency, underscoring the challenges political parties face in managing their online image. The forum itself, focusing on lessons learned from other nations, adds an international perspective to the discussion on effective communication strategies.
