00:00Communications Minister Fahmy Fadzil has denied META's claim that the government's social

00:06media licence plan lacks clear guidelines.

00:11Fahmy said the government has been in discussion with META regarding the new licence requirements

00:16since earlier this year.

00:19Fahmy said META officials are giving excuses, but he would not compromise on the safety

00:23of Malaysians.

00:26Yesterday, META criticised Malaysia's plan to require social media platforms to apply

00:31for a regulatory licence by January.

00:35META said the plan lacked clear guidelines and gave these companies little time to comply.

00:42In June, Putrajaya said it will require social media platforms with more than 8 million users

00:47in the country to obtain a licence.

00:50Fahmy also said the government cannot extend its implementation timeline as doing so will

00:55provide criminals the opportunity to operate on META platforms.
