To put it in simple term, defamation occurs when a person expresses words that may lower another person’s reputation in the eyes of the public.
There are two types of defamation in Malaysia: libel and slander.
Libel is when such words are expressed in a permanent form which is usually visible to the eye, like in a book, e-mail or picture.
Slander is when such words are expressed in a temporary form, usually when spoken or made by body movements.
