00:00If we look at the draft law that can be passed by all the parliaments in Malaysia,
00:29we can see that the amendments that were made specifically not only for Section 233,
00:38but there are 51 amendments to this amendment, which is much better after 26 years.
00:46Article 588 was strengthened.
00:49And for Section 233, we do two things that are actually game-changers.
00:58First, we make two types of offences, pedophilia and selling pornography as a crime that can be arrested.
01:12Seizable offences.
01:14So this, I'm sure, is not a simple amendment, but it will help ensure that the offenders,
01:26especially those involved in selling pornography, such as in the Hot Daddy case before this,
01:32and also those who are pedophiles, who keep sexual materials, sexual crimes against children,
01:44they are the perpetrators.
01:46So we will make an amendment so that these two groups, the police can arrest them.
01:57Meanwhile, for a few other things, we make the words, for example, no longer bad, but too bad.
02:07This is to ensure that the right to freedom of speech of the Malaysian people is not only guaranteed and protected,
02:16but will be more restricted along with the provisions that are included.
02:26Before this, there was no provision, but we included it as an example so that both the defense,
02:35the prosecution, and the judge will be able to judge with more precision.
02:43For me, this is better.
02:46So even though there are allegations from several parties, but after we have studied the process for more than two years,
02:54we have decided that we will make some of the offences more severe, more severe actions can be taken,
03:04while for the aspect of freedom of speech, it is more restricted and not easy to misuse in the future.
03:14So, God willing, this will be better for the Malaysian people.
