Teo denies hit Chinese animation film banned over pig imagery
Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching has denied rumours that the Chinese New Year animated film “Ne Zha: The Devil Child Rages at the Sea” (Ne Zha 2) is banned in Malaysia due to pig imagery, saying the film will be released in local cinemas on March 13.
The speculation arose after TGV Cinemas initially published an announcement on its website earlier this month stating that Ne Zha 2 would be screened. However, on Feb 6, TGV posted a clarification and apology on its Facebook page.
