Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak is expected to announce the dissolution of parliament on Friday, a government minister said on Tuesday, paving way for what is expected to be the toughest ever general election for his long-ruling coalition. The news came after Malaysia’s parliament on Monday passed a law prohibiting fake news that critics fear will be abused to silence dissent ahead of a general election. Malaysian lawmakers also voted to redraw the electoral map in what critics decried as a move to rig an upcoming election, sparking angry protests outside parliament and fury from the opposition within.
