Tech Giants Urge Malaysia To Pause Plan For Social Media Platform Licenses



“No platform can be expected to register under these conditions”
(NST) – An Asian industry group that includes Google, Meta and X urged Malaysia in an open letter to pause a plan that will require social media services to apply for a license, citing a lack of clarity over the proposed regulations.
However, the letter from the Asia Internet Coalition (AIC) was removed from its website late Monday, and the group did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for an explanation
Grab, a member of the coalition, said in a separate statement it had not been informed or consulted about the letter, adding that the government’s plan did not impact on its operations.
In July, Malaysia’s communications regulator said social media platforms with more than eight million users in the country would be required to apply for a license from this month as part of a drive to combat cybercrime
Legal action could be taken against the platforms if they failed to do so by Jan. 1, 2025, the regulator said
In the letter dated Friday and addressed to Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, the AIC – whose members also include Apple Inc and Amazon – said the proposed licensing regime was “unworkable” for the industry and could stifle innovation by placing undue burdens on businesses.
The group said there had been no formal public consultations on the plan, leading to industry uncertainty regarding the scope of obligations to be imposed on social media platforms
“No platform can be expected to register under these conditions,” AIC Managing Director Jeff Paine wrote in the letter posted on the group’s website
Malaysia’s communications ministry declined to comment on the letter. The prime minister’s office did not respond to a request for comment
