![Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan says Putrajaya is prepared to face the consequences of the proposed Internet controls. – The Malaysian Insider filepic, August 21, 2015.](http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/assets/uploads/articles/BARISAN_NASIONAL_ABDUL_RAHMAN_DAHLAN_KAYUHAN_HARI_MALAYSIA_110815_TMINAJJUA_03.jpg)
Putrajaya is ready to face the consequences of its proposed regulations on Internet use in the next general election if its security policies do not benefit the people, Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan said.
The minister of urban welbeing, housing and local government, however, said he was confident that people would support the government's efforts in streamlining policy over Internet use in the country.
"We are willing to stake our future as a political party, for the people to decide three, four years from now, whether our position taken on security issues are appreciated by the people.
"We feel the people are with us on this, they want the government to take necessary action against the spreading of false information and pitting one race against another, which was a threat to national unity.
"We are prepared to face the consequences, be it from the opposition or the people," he said at a press conference in Petaling Jaya today.
Rahman is also ruling coalition Barisan Nasional's strategic communications director.
