⚠️ Event Frequently Causes Public Outrage
Since 2019, the Women's March Malaysia has faced recurring criticism from conservative political and religious groups who claim the event's focus has shifted from women's rights to LGBTQ advocacy. Critics, including members of the Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), have framed the inclusion of LGBTQ slogans as "hijacking" the movement to push controversial agendas under the guise of mainstream activism. This narrative—that the march serves as a "misuse of democratic space"—has consistently led to public backlash and police investigations under the Peaceful Assembly Act and the Sedition Act.
