This next?

For many years, it is a heart-breaking event for Malaysians whenever there is a publication of world university rankings, for it is not to find out how well Malaysian universities compare with the best in the world but how badly Malaysian universities fared in international university comparisons and benchmarkings.

The release today of the 2014 Times Higher Education (THE) World Reputation Rankings for the Top 100 Universities is no different. In fact, it is worse.

For four consecutive years, Malaysia has been excluded from both the THE World Reputation Rankings and the THE World University Rankings for Top 400, with not a single Malaysian university able to make the grade in both rankings.

Ultraman Comic Falls To Home Ministry Ban

KUALA LUMPUR — The Home Ministry has done what countless monsters and space aliens could not: Vanquish Ultraman.

According to a report by national news agency Bernama today, the ministry issued a ban on the publication of the Bahasa Malaysia edition of the comic book, “Ultraman the Ultra Power”, for allegedly containing elements detrimental to public order.

“It is an offence under Section 8 (2) of the Printing Presses and Publications Act 1984 for any person to print, import, produce, reproduce, publish, sell, distribute, offer to sell or have in his possession for any such purpose the banned publication,” the ministry said in a statement.

The statement was not yet available on the ministry’s website this evening, but an official verified the ban when contacted by The Malay Mail Online today.

"Yes, KDN has banned the book ‘Ultraman the Ultra Power’," the official said in a brief text message. KDN is the Malay acronym for the Home Ministry.

The ministry added that a gazette was issued on February 18 banning the comic that is published by Resign Publications and printed by Network Printers.

It is unclear what aspect of the comic had led to the ban.

Ultraman is a fictional Japanese superhero who fights “Kaiju” (monsters), and first appeared on television in the 1960s.

It later gained popularity worldwide, including in Malaysia, leading to localised versions of the TV series and comic books.

Ultraman ban raises flak
Alyaa Azhar
| March 7, 2014

Facebook users question as to how is Ultraman a threat to public order.

ultraman1PETALING JAYA: Thousands of Facebook users are unable to grasp the logic behind the ban on the publication of comic book Ultraman the Ultra Power, as evidenced from the numerous comments ridiculing the ban enforced by the Home Ministry (KDN).

As of today, hundreds of comments have been posted on FMT’s website and the article was shared 5,187 times on Facebook alone.

Facebook user Shihan Yap said the ban was utter nonsense especially since satellite television Astro has been showing the Ultraman television series for years.

“How can Ultraman be a risk factor to the public? Is it because there are some out there, the Ultramalays, Ultrachinese and Ultraindians who feel offended because the word “Ultra” is only for them? What’s next… Banning X-Men?”

The Home Ministry yesterday banned the comic which was said to contain elements that threatened public order.

The Malay-edition of the comic is published by Resign Publications and printed by Network Printers.

A photo circulated on Facebook allegedly shows a copy of the publication which contains a reference to Ultraman being compared to “Allah or all the Elders of Ultra heroes”.

Another user, Shan Nair Shivananthan questioned as to whether the Tom and Jerry animated series too would be banned.

“Is this for real? Where is this country heading to? What is to be banned next; Tom and Jerry because Tom chases Jerry all the time?” Shan asked.

“Let’s stop producing films like ‘KL Gangster’, too,” said Facebook user Daniel Khong.

User Foon Pheng Keong meanwhile was of the opinion that Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali, former Kulim-Bandar Baharu MP Zulkifli Nordin and academician Ridhuan Tee Abdullah were more dangerous than Ultraman.

“Ibrahim Katak, Zulkifli Nordin dan Ridhuan Tee are more dangerous than Ultraman. They are usually the ones who incite racial and religious issues. Their brains contain elements that can threaten public order.”

Allah’s name misused

However, Irfan Ampereox pointed out that the comic had portrayed the Muslim God’s name unnecessarily.

“Never in my life of watching Ultraman or reading its comics have I ever had to see any justification to use that name. If that name wasn’t in that book, KDN has no reason to ban the book.”

A fellow commenter, Wong Yew Fung said the issue was simply bad Google translation of the word God to Allah.

“Nothing to do with the Ultraman series, nor does it choose to portray the Muslim God’s name unnecessarily, it was just a mistake of the publisher of the Bahasa edition.”

According to the statement by the Home Ministry, the prohibition gazette was effective from Feb 18 following Section 7(1) of the Printing Presses and Publications Act 1984.

“It is an offence under subsection 2 of Section 8 of the Printing Presses and Publications Act 1984 for any person to print, import, produce, reproduce, publish, sell, distribute or possess the prohibited publication for any purpose.”

The statement said that those convicted of such an offence shall be liable to imprisonment not exceeding three years or a fine not exceeding RM20,000 or both.

Netizens lash out at ban on Ultraman



Upset netizens have started blaming Home Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for the ban on a Ultraman comic book in Bahasa Malaysia for containing elements which could ostensibly jeopardise public order.



KUALA LUMPUR, March 6

He has been fighting off aliens and monsters for 48 years and never lost even once. But Ultraman has met his nemesis — Malaysia’s Home Ministry.

The beloved Japanese superhero character has succumbed to an order under the Publishing Prohibition Order.

The ministry today issued a ban on the publication of the Bahasa Malaysia edition of Ultraman the Ultra Power.

Bernama reported that the authorities said the comic book contained elements which could ostensibly jeopardise public order.

Citing the ministry’s statement, the ban order on the comic book took effect on Feb 18, under Section 7(1) of the Printing and Publications Act 1984.

“It is an offence under subsection 2 of Section 8 of the act, for any party to print, import, produce and reproduce, publish, sell, produce, circulate, offer for sale, distribute or be in possession for any intention, of the banned publication,” the statement read.

The ministry also warned that those found guilty can face imprisonment not exceeding 3 years or fined a maximum penalty of RM20,00 or both.

The ban, as expected, resulted in enraged netizens voicing their fury and disbelief in cyberspace.

This included Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, who tweeted: “Apa salah Ultraman?” (What is Ultraman’s fault?)

Twitter user by the name @MyNamaIsLara wrote: “Eh? Kenapa Ultraman kena ban? What the f*** is wrong with you Zahid? Anak aku suka Ultraman lah!” (Why has Ultraman been banned? My kid loves Ultraman!)

Local celebrity and television host Daphne Iking also jumped on the bandwagon, tweeting: “I was never a fan of Ultraman but poor kids who are. :-( I wanna laugh at this ridiculous ruling… Butttttt I wonder what Ultraman would do.”

Another Twitter user, Muhammad Hafiz wrote: “LOL Malaysia LOL. Banning an Ultraman comic is so weird.”

Anas Zubedy, author of “The Quran and I” wrote: “Dear Home Ministry, when I was little I was crazy abt Ultraman but later as I grew up I noticed d YKK zippers & hv no urge 2 destroy Tokyo:)”

Tune Talk CEO, Jason Jonathon Lo wrote on his Twitter account: “Tis a sad day to find Ultraman banned in Malaysia. Maybe next, Archie, Lau Foo Tze, Garfield, Lat, Hellboy, Dilbert. Help us Al…er god.”
