PORT DICKSON — Malaysian Army Chief General Datuk Azhan Md Othman has confirmed that 15 army officers were identified as being involved in alleged immoral activities linked to the so-called “Yeye” culture, which recently went viral on social media.
He said an internal investigation has been conducted and action against the officers involved is currently being taken.
Azhan stressed that the Malaysian Army (TDM) takes seriously any breach of orders, instructions and service regulations, and firm action will be taken without compromise against those found guilty.
“This is a serious matter that must be addressed. I want to emphasise that wrongdoing is wrong and will be punished. We do not protect individuals who are found guilty.
“I have also instructed the Criminal Investigation Branch of TDM and other relevant military agencies to carry out detailed investigations into all complaints received, including those related to this alleged immoral activity,” he said at a press conference after a graduation parade for recruits who completed basic military training at the Army Basic Training Centre here, today.
Azhan stressed that the new TDM leadership would not compromise with any party, including senior-ranking officers, and that strict action would be taken against those found guilty.
He said integrity and discipline are the core strengths of TDM, and any offence, even if it involves a single individual, can significantly affect the organisation’s overall image, credibility and public trust.
Earlier, the Ministry of Defence, in a statement, said it takes seriously allegations regarding the entry of unauthorised individuals and the alleged involvement in immoral activities within military camps, which had gone viral on social media.
Following this, the Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM) was instructed to carry out an immediate internal investigation to determine the validity of the allegations. - January 17, 2026
