A video on the TikTok platform with content warning about Chinese communist influence in Malaysia has been censored for viewers in the Southeast Asian country.

Malaysia-based users of the China-owned video platform reported they were unable to access the video, which had gone viral, of a March 25 press conference by former Foreign Minister Rais Yatim announcing he filed a police report alleging communist activity by a Malaysian nonprofit organization.
