Govt moves to boost MCMC's powers, enforce stricter oversight, accountability and clearer separation of roles

The Malaysian government is enhancing the powers of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to improve oversight, accountability, and role separation within the commission. This initiative includes amending the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 to ensure MCMC's independence and to prevent conflicts of interest, particularly in its regulatory and commercial roles. The government aims to strengthen MCMC's regulatory framework, increase transparency, and ensure that MCMC can effectively manage the dynamic telecommunications and digital landscape. These changes are part of a broader effort to align MCMC's operations with international best practices, thereby fostering a more competitive and fair digital environment in Malaysia.
