BAGAN DATUK: The recent move by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) which makes it mandatory for all social media and Internet messaging services to apply for an Application Service Provider Class Licence under the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 (Act 588) is a step in the right direction, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
The Deputy Prime Minister said the move could help check the increase in cybercrime cases, including the use of fake accounts on social media, as well as spreading negative perceptions about the government.
