    Not much analysis in this poll, but I would not be surprised if the US support for recent Israel actions is a huge part of the story. Not only does it directly sow animosity to the US among the Malay Muslim population, but it also raises doubts about the US-led narrative on Muslim Uighurs in China. Kind of hard to sustain the “China is doing genocide in Xinjiang” narrative when you’re doing everything you can to deny genocide in Gaza.
