“We have not yet received any applications because we only announced the regulatory framework or licencing for social media services on August 1. This regulation will take effect from Jan 1, 2025, following the introduction of a new regulatory framework for social media services starting August 1. This requirement, however, does not apply to users of these platforms.

When asked if the government plans to shut down platforms that are not licenced, Fahmi said that there is no intention to close or suspend any platform as long as they comply with laws in the country. Apart from implementing licencing requirements, he announced that a nationwide online safety campaign will be launched soon.
