Obeid claimed in a social media post that his Sunday show was cancelled because regulator Infocomm Media Development Authority rejected his script despite submitting a heavily toned-down version.
“After waiting weeks and weeks, the script was rejected... I was told to completely remove all mentions of Palestine and Israel,“ Obeid added.
The authority’s spokesperson clarified that the license application was rejected because it was submitted only 10 working days before the event.
“IMDA had not requested for any edits to be made on the script,“ the authority emphasised, adding that “at no time, were ‘multiple edits’ requested.”
Obeid has announced plans to perform in other Asian locations including Bali, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul and Tokyo. – AFP
