Blowing hot air in Malawi | Radio Netherlands Worldwide: "It’s hard to say how it all began. But once the story of a new bill in Malawi prohibiting public farting was picked up by Reuters and the BBC, rumours quickly became established, if not entirely misinformed facts.
The international media uproar amazed Chikosa Silungwe, a lawyer with the Malawi Law Commission, the country’s independent law reform organization. “There’s nothing like that happening in Malawi. There’s no farting law being introduced in our Parliament and there has never been a farting law in Malawi,” Silungwe says."
