Low Yat - Was it Racial?

The Low Yat incident was entangled with a variety of narratives. Some say it was a simple case of theft, while the dominating narrative is one that has racial undertones. Social media played a pivotal role in amplifying the conversations surrounding the racial riot that took place. This week, we deconstruct these narratives and explore the underlying themes of this incident.

This report was produced by Aziff Azuddin, Aisyah Tajuddin, Sharyl Kaur and Muhammad Haniff Baharudin.
