Film Censorship Board set to revise outdated fees


PUTRAJAYA: Filmmakers and importers will soon have to dip deeper into their pockets to have their film certified by the Film Censorship Board.

Home Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the censorship fee would be reviewed after 30 years. He said the current rate was based on the Film Censorship Regulations 1984 that had not been amended since it came into force.
