The MCMC had censored and blocked Malaysia Today. During this period of time, I’ve read much complaints on the violation of the MSC Bill of Guarantees and below is a summary by Jeffrey posted in one of YB Kit’s thread:
“The government has a plethora of laws against Internet abuse and it has already brought sedition and criminal intimidation charges against website owner RPK so why the censorship?
Under point 7 of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) Malaysia 10 Point Bill of Guarantees to the international community, the government promises to ensure no internet censorship.
Here government does the censorship ‘indirectly’ by invoking Section 263 of the Communications and Multimedia Act (1998) by pressuring license holders (such as ISPs) to take action against service user like Malaysia Today alleged to be contravening national laws. (Under of the Act, a licensee must “use his best endeavour” to prevent his/her facilities from being used to violate any law in the country”).
If they can block Malaysia Today they can block other blogs like this one too.
As mainstream media is controlled and used as a propaganda machine, the Internet is the last bastion of free speech and source of truths (as well as untruths) though it is up to readers to sift and separate wheat from chaff.
Please remind them on implications of breaching an international guarantee like MSC Bill of Guarantee and its effects on MSC, investments and generally government’s credibility in the international arena.”
Will it affects the growth of the IT industry in Malaysia?
