PETALING JAYA: Malaysians trust the media – particularly traditional media like newspapers, TV and radio – more now compared to five years ago and, according to a new study by Ipsos, bucking against a global trend.

The study by the global market research firm found that country patterns remained stable for trust in different news sources, with Malaysia ranking among the highest, along with India, Saudi Arabia and South Africa, while Hungary, Serbia and Poland were often found to be among the lowest.
