Finas under MACC probe, says Gobind


The industry is hoping that Gobind Singh Deo, the new Communications and Multimedia Minister, will relook at the way spectrum is awarded, so that only those who can pay for the spectrum and deliver the services should be entitled to use it. His move will be watched as that will determine how future spectrum allocations are made. Up for grabs next is the 2600MHz band.

PETALING JAYA: The National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (Finas) is under investigations for alleged misappropriation of allocations, says Gobind Singh Deo (pic).

The Communications and Multi-me­­dia Minister said the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) was in the midst of investigating a number of “questionable” allocations for 2017.
