KUALA LUMPUR: There is a growing trend of traditional crimes moving into cyberspace and social media, says Fahmi Fadzil with serious concern.
The Communications Minister said he had received a briefing on the matter this morning from National Security Council director-general Datuk Raja Nurshirwan Zainal Abidin, Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain and a deputy director of the Commercial Crime Investigation Department.
"With the right measures, we aim to make the Internet and social media safer for everyone," Fahmi said in a Facebook post Wednesday (July 24).
Earlier, he had highlighted the need to consider new legislation to address online crime and keep up with rapid technological advancements. - Bernama
