New Delhi, April 21: Malaysia has witnessed a remarkable fall in press freedom while China, which continues to take Internet censorship, surveillance and propaganda to unprecedented levels , is still firmly anchored among the worst countries in the 2021 World Press Freedom Index compiled by Paris-based Reporters Without Borders (RSF) which provides information about the media freedom situation worldwide. The annual report published on Tuesday shows that journalism - the main vaccine against disinformation - is completely or partly blocked in 73 per cent of the 180 countries ranked by the organisation in the last 12 months. It said that the Covid-19 pandemic has been used as grounds to block access to information with the journalists finding it increasingly hard to investigate and report sensitive stories, especially in Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
