KUALA LUMPUR — A fun meme posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, ended up exposing a fraud who had managed to fool even the chief security office of the Malaysian government to win a place in its premier youth fellowship programme.
Azhar had been assigned as an intern to Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz. But Datuk Seri Zafrul and Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh, whose ministry heads the fellowship programme, were not the first Cabinet members to be taken in by Mr Azhar's claims.On Wednesday , the Youth and Sports Ministry issued a statement saying that anyone with false credentials will be terminated from the Perdana Fellowship.
But it was later revealed the competition was an on-site activity held at Space Centre Houston for teams, not individual students. Also, the participants must be United States citizens or legal permanent residents. After several users wondered "what he's up to now", another user revealed that Azhar had become a Perdana Fellow despite his Nasa claims being exposed.
