Ban Jocelyn Chia from entering Malaysia, says Barisan Youth

KUALA LUMPUR: Barisan Nasional Youth has called for the country to blacklist stand-up comedian Jocelyn Chia following her remarks on the ill-fated MH370 flight.

Umno Youth chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh said Chia’s statement made against the missing aircraft during her performance in the United States, was deemed insensitive towards the victims’ families.

Dr Muhamad Akmal added that the memorandum has called for legal action to be taken against the comedian, who is a US citizen. Dr Muhamad Akmal was accompanied by 100 Umno and MCA Youth members who staged a peaceful demonstration outside the embassy. Intan Maizura Othaman, the widow of a crew member on board MH370, has also slammed Chia for making such insensitive and tasteless jokes.
