KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 25 — Media as the fourth estate need to be given space to provide checks and balances as well as oversights on governance as long as it is within the ambit of the law, said Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil.
“When media start acting on behalf of certain parties, certain individuals, or vested interests, we have to assess them to make sure that they do not run against the principle of good governance,” he said in an exclusive interview with Bernama recently. He said most media platforms are equipped with artificial intelligence programmes to sift through and remove materials that are contrary to the platform community guidelines.
He said this when asked about the ministry's course of action to navigate issues pertaining to the 3R- race, religion and royalty - as user-generated content is bombarding the alternative media landscape.
