Kuala
Lumpur,
(ANI):
beyonce
knowles'
concert
in
Malaysia
was
postponed
by
the
singer
herself,
revealed
Information,
Communications
and
Culture
Minister
Datuk
Seri
Dr
Rais
Yatim.
Datuk
said
that
there
was
no
interference
by
his
ministry
on
the
matter
and
that
Beyonce,
28,
who
was
scheduled
to
hold
the
concert
on
October
18,
had
decided
to
postpone
the
concert
on
her
own,
reports
New
Straits
Times
Online.
According
to
him,
there
are
many
possibilities
as
to
why
she
decided
not
to
perform
on
the
given
date,
and
cited
that
one
of
the
reasons
could
be
because
of
pressure
from
the
organisers.
He
also
said
her
refusal
to
comply
with
the
dress
code
or
simply
because
the
concert
would
not
be
profitable
could
lead
to
her
postponement.
But
he
denied
rumours
that
she
had
been
pressured
by
threats
from
certain
groups
after
she
announced
that
Malaysia
would
be
one
of
the
venues
for
her
"I
AM...World
Tour".
Pas
Youth
was
one
of
the
groups,
which
had
declared
to
take
'further
action'
over
the
government's
refusal
to
ban
the
concert
at
the
National
Stadium
Bukit
Jalil.
