Romance through digital avatars: Online courtship, representation and 'catfishing' amongst irregular female migrants in Sabah.- 5. Grateful politics: Rohingya and social media in the time of the pandemic.- Part 3: The "Othered" minorities.- 6. Confronting Malaysian Indian stereotypes and state neglect: The 'SuguPavithra' episode within mainstream national discourse.- 7. 'Our online-ness matters': The construction of social media presences by Malaysian LGBTQ Communities.- 8. A 'blue ocean' for marginalised radical voices: Cyberspace, social media and extremist discourse in Malaysia. This book consists of nine chapters, each an in-depth case study into a specific non-mainstream or marginalized online community in Malaysia. The authors come from diverse backgrounds to talk about how new media can both assist and hinder maligned minorities, ignored ethnicities or the often attacked migrants in their day to day lives. The book makes a strong contribution to Malaysian studies which highlights the other and represents minority viewpoints to challenge the belief that Malaysia's online space is monolithic and limited to several mainstream discourses in Malaysian scholarship |
