Media should be given space to serve as check and balance, says Fahmi
Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil says media agencies should serve the interests of the people in promoting good governance in the country. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, January 25, 2023.
“I think as long as it is clear that the initiatives, the kind of stories, journalistic activism – if I may say it that way – serve the rakyat, I think it will benefit the nation. Fahmi said his ministry is working closely with the social media service providers and they have been informed of the Malaysian laws and culture in which they have to acknowledge and operate within.
“I think we have community guidelines on how these apps navigate freedom of speech while adhering to laws, but we also have our law and culture, so I think these will help navigate a lot of these new terrains,” he said.
