3R issues: Ministry engaging with social media providers, platforms - Fahmi

The Communications and Digital Ministry has been engaging with social media platform providers and operators to help them better understand the laws pertaining to royalty, religion and race (3R) issues.

Its minister Fahmi Fadzil said the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) had conducted engagement sessions with almost all social media platform operators including Telegram and Meta.

He also noted that cooperation with Telegram is good despite the platform’s earlier refusal to meet with the MCMC regarding pornographic content, hate groups, scams, and other issues.

“I have not received the latest report. I know that MCMC and Bukit Aman (the police) have had several engagement sessions. After the last meeting with Meta last week, there was a session that took place over the past few days.

“However, I am made to understand that most of the social media providers and operators understand the laws of the land a lot better as well as MCMC and the police’s role in terms of protecting public safety and security,” he told reporters after launching the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) Horizon Publication today.

Horizon is a strategic digital economy publication aiming to showcase the vibrant growth trend in Malaysia’s digital economy, and provide insight on trends and opportunities in Malaysia’s digital economy.

Meanwhile, Fahmi said the ministry will leave it to the Royal Malaysia Police to take further actions against any party who made statements that touched on the 3R issues, including cases involving DAP chairperson Lim Guan Eng and PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang.

“The police will act without fear or favour against anyone who seems to be possibly transgressing the laws of the land,” he added.

It was previously reported that Hadi was being investigated for his recent remarks that allegedly touched on the 3R.
