According to Malaysian media reports on May 16, Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh was boycotted by Malaysian netizens and was included in the list of 30 people.
Malaysian media reported that Malaysia has recently launched a "ban" campaign, which aims to punish Malaysian celebrities who remain silent on the "Palestinian-Israeli conflict" and support Israel-related brands, including Michelle Yeoh, comedian Hila Rusley, singer and businesswoman Mirafilza, etc.
The campaign was launched on TikTok on May 12, and by May 15, it had been watched by 800,000 people, reposted by 5,600 people, and Malaysia's population was about 33 million.
As everyone knows, Michelle Yeoh is the most successful Chinese actress in Hollywood, won the Oscar last year, and this year she was pleased to mention that US President Biden awarded the highest medal of honor, the award ceremony was held on May 4, and the 18 people selected also included Pelosi, Michelle Yeoh was the last person to take the stage, not because she was not qualified enough, but because her English name began with the letter at the end.
During this period, there were many episodes, Biden pronounced Michelle Yeoh's English name Michelle Yeoh as "Michael", this detail sparked heated discussions, some people complained that Biden was old and inflexible, and some people thought it was deliberate, because as many as 18 people were awarded, each of whom had about a minute of introduction, but only Michelle Yeoh was mispronounced by name.
Malaysian netizens were not proud of Michelle Yeoh's award, complaining that this was a political show, and then set off a storm of boycotting the ban. Michelle Yeoh is highly bound to Hollywood, and many of the financiers behind the scenes are Jews, I believe that Michelle Yeoh will most likely not respond to this matter, and only by remaining silent will both sides not be offended.
It is reported that the number of people who believe in Islam in Malaysia accounts for 61% of the total number of people, while the Palestinians also believe in Islam, although there are differences between the two, most of them are on the side of the Palestinian people. However, the Chinese in Malaysia rarely stand in line, if you want to talk about faith, Michelle Yeoh's ancestral home is Fujian, and their family should believe in Mazu, especially her father's tombstone, and also follow the tradition of her hometown.
The main reason for this turmoil is that Michelle Yeoh is too popular, and there are still many people who are popular.
