Zunar comes under fire for cartoon on Washington Post

Malaysian authorities aren’t happy with an editorial cartoonist by Zulkiflee Anwar Ulhaque, AKA Zunar, drew a cartoon that was posted on Michael Cavna’s Comic Riffs blog. The cartoon is critical to the Malaysian government’s slow response to the missing airline.

From the Jakarta Post:

Head of politics, security, and international affairs cluster, Professor Dr. Mohamed Mustafa Ishak described Zunar?s comic as insensitive and misleading.

He said Zunar?s claim that Malaysia was hiding facts was preposterous.

“It is impossible to hide facts when multi-national forces are roped in to help in the search and rescue mission,” he said, adding it reflected great transparency.
