00:00Last night, after finishing my duties at the Royal Court, at 12.30pm, I received a message from my colleagues asking why RTM wrote the word condolences on their Facebook page.
00:21I found out that the original post on RTM's Facebook page is in Malay.
00:30Meanwhile, the person who found out about this, read it in English by using Facebook's auto-translate.
00:40Even this morning, the Prime Minister has given his opinion and I have given my explanation.
00:47The blame is not on us, but on META, on Facebook.
00:52Before I came here, I have instructed the MCMC board of directors, the message from YB, and from the people of Malaysia.
01:04We can see that the problem of social media is getting worse.
01:09Whether it is spreading fake news, or becoming a victim of a scam.
01:14Now, a victim of cyber-bullying to the point of committing suicide.
01:20Tan Sri, in front of all of you, including the Prime Minister, Tan Sri KSN, and the Cabinet, I am instructing you to do something.
01:28After this, all social media platforms must be responsible.
01:36And God willing, we will take a very firm action in the next few days.
01:42And we will do this for the sake of safety, ladies and gentlemen, especially children and families.
01:49Believe me, the desire of the government is to ensure that our internet is not only cheaper, easier to access, more efficient, but also safer for us to use.
