The Ministry of Tourism said remarks by Minister of State for Tourism Mohamed Nihad do not represent the government's official stance, and he has been suspended pending further review.

Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
As a result, Mr. Nihad has been suspended from his duties while a further review is conducted.
