PETALING JAYA: The official Facebook account of former DAP member Hew Kuan Yau, better known as "Superman Hew", has been deactivated. The comic book made headlines recently after former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak alleged that it was being distributed in schools. Hew, on his Facebook page, defended the comic book, saying its aim was to educate the students on the belt and road initiative. This had drawn criticism from the general public as well as Pakatan Harapan leaders including Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman.
