Hamid Razak on Info-communications Media Development Authority (Amendment) Bill
The effort to bring media competition and conduct provisions closer to the telco model is a necessary response to technological convergence, said MP Hamid Razak. Speaking in parliament on Wednesday (May 6), he pointed out success will depend on how transparently and consistently the powers are applied. Industry players will need clear signals on the thresholds, obligations and enforcement expectations, while the public should be able to see that the interventions are designed not to overregulate but to preserve fairness, openness and resilience in a converged digital landscape, he added.
