The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has been directed to assist police in investigating a school bus driver who posts content that features children and those who made inappropriate comments on his post, says Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil.

After attending the International Legal Conference on Online Harms 2024 on Friday (Sept 6), Fahmi also noted that authorities are analysing the followers of the bus driver who posted comments akin to purveyors of crimes involving minors.

He also cautioned teachers against uploading content involving schoolchildren, as such actions are illegal under the Child Act 2001.
