Abstract

Harakah, an official political organ of Islamic Party of Malaysia (PAS) was established in 1987. Since its establishment, Harakah became the main alternative newspaper in Malaysia and was consistent in providing a counter discourse as compared to the role played by the mainstream media. In playing its role as a check and balance newspaper, Harakah had to encounter various challenges and obstacles from the powers-that-be. During the 22 years rule of Dr. Mahathir Mohamad as the Prime Minister of Malaysia, the strength of Harakah fluctuated depending on the freedom and control of media policy.
