Siapa Jaga Media?

Siapa Jaga Media?

Over the past few months, media companies and journalists have been probed and investigated by the authorities. Many media companies have also shut down and laid off their staff due to the evolving landscape and also the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of that a number of media advocacy groups have come together to launch the #siapajagamedia campaign. We discuss what this campaign is all about and the importance of media freedom.
