Nuh, who is also the communications and information minister, said in a press release made available to Antara on Tuesday the directive was shown to the producer and director of a comedy film currently in production titled Menculik Miyabi (Kidnapping Miyabi) during a meeting at his office earlier in the day. Nuh asked Odi Mulya Hidayat from Maxima Pictures, as the sponsor of Miyabi's planned visit here, to heed the directive and cancel the starlet's visit, which has triggered an outcry from the religious right. At the meeting, Maxima Pictures agreed to keep to the directive in order to avoid the controversy from drawing out, the release said.
