KUALA KUBU BARU: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has instructed the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission to streamline the laws and step up enforcement to check dissemination of slander on social media.

The Prime Minister said if such slanders were allowed to fester, it would alter the mindset of the people and create a state of “trial by social media”.
