KULAI: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) is studying various age verification methods before the enforcement of the minimum age limit of 16 for social media use, which is expected to take effect in the second quarter of this year.
Deputy Communications Minister Datuk Teo Nie Ching said MCMC has held engagement sessions with social media service providers such as Meta, Google, and TikTok to determine the most suitable method in a process conducted together with the involved social media platforms through a regulatory sandbox, or testing environment.
