KUALA LUMPUR, March 24- Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said he was convinced the government would set up a special commission or issue a white paper on the intrusion by Sulu terrorists in Lahad Datu, Sabah.
He said this was important and necessary to find out who was responsible for circulating false information via SMS and the Internet.
“Much information had been spread via SMS and the Internet and 98 per cent of it is false.
“For example, there was information that four boats carrying 10 individuals in Tawau had launched an attack when they were actually fishermen. None of the information was true,” he told reporters after launching the Gombak Barisan Nasional Youth election machinery in preparation for the 13th general election, here.
Hishammuddin said the people of all races, including the Suluk in Sabah, were united and no one should attempt to cause friction among them by spreading false information for vested interests.
