MCMC Challenges AIC's Authority

Morning Brief

Earlier this, the Asia Internet Coalition (AIC), an industry group, sent a letter to the Prime Minister calling for a halt to new social media licensing. The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has since questioned AIC’s representation of tech companies, noting discrepancies and Grab Malaysia’s claim of not being consulted. We turn to Derek John Fernandez, a Commission Member of the MCMC, for insights on these allegations.
