Media Council Should Remain Free From Interference At All Times Say Experts


 
Jakarta Post editor-in-chief M Taufiqurrahman, speaking during the media forum, said members of the media council in Malaysia should be elected and not appointed by the government. (Bernama pic)IPOH: The proposed National Media Council must remain free from government interference and stay independent, regardless of any change of government, panellists at the Hawana 2023 media forum said today.
Speaking at the forum, titled Survival of Traditional Media in the Digital Era, Jakarta Post editor-in-chief M Taufiqurrahman, Malaysian Advertisers Association senior adviser Kadri Talib, REV Media chief operating officer Nicholas Sagau and Mindshare Group CEO Sheila Shanmugam supported the formation of a media council in Malaysia.
Using the Indonesian press council as an example, Taufiqurrahman said the body had been instrumental in keeping the country’s media independent and free from government interference.

“It’s a way to self-regulate ourselves without having political interference from the government or from businesses,” he said.
He also said members of the media council in Malaysia should be elected and not appointed by the government.
On the establishment of the media council in Malaysia, other panellists said there were certain issues that must be addressed first, such as its scope, objective and agenda.
“Do we want to create guidance or impose rules?” asked Sheila. “What do we need to address and what are the dependencies? Dependencies on which body? Is it about regulation? Is it about content creation? Is it about talent?”
She said determining these details would help get the right members into the right seats.
Ads by KioskedWhile the panellists agreed the proposed media council should remain as independent as possible, there was still a place for the government in media affairs.
The panellists discussed whether governments should follow the example of Australia, Indonesia and Taiwan in requiring Big Tech to pay news organisations for using their content on their platforms.
Taufiqurrahman said Indonesia was currently drafting a law requiring social media platforms to enter into business deals with news organisations.
“I think this is the only way to have a level playing field,” he said.
“Otherwise, it’s going to be a very cutthroat competition and it will be a free-for-all. If you’re small, you won’t stand a chance.”
However, not all agreed this type of intervention would work.
Ads by Kiosked“I think it’s very hard to level the playing field within the market. Even as much as we transform ourselves, Meta (Facebook’s parent company) and Google will always be there to compete,” said Nicholas.
He said there were several models of income-sharing for news organisations and Big Tech, including working with the social media platforms, or having Big Tech pay tax to governments, which can then be distributed to news organisations.
The media forum, co-organised by Bernama and the Institute of Broadcasting and Information Tun Abd Razak, was attended by journalists and academics from Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, China, Japan and Kuwait.
Hawana has been celebrated every year on May 29 since 2018 to honour journalists in Malaysia. - FMT
