Malaysia Call For Law To Censor Pornograhic Websites

8 May-The Malaysia Crime Prevention Foundation called on the government to draft a law to censor pornographic websites. Its vice-chairman, Tan Sri Lee lam Thye said the law was not to prevent Internet technology from entering the country, but more on preventing the inflow of pornographic materials from becoming more rampant.

It would be interesting to see how the Malaysia government impose law to tackle the issue of pornographic as to prevent the inflow of pornographic materials from world wide web requires extreme measures. Would they put a burden on the ISP or the private individuals?

If the main concern is on the teenagers, shouldn't the parents/guardians be responsible for the parental control?

I would suggest that there are 2 main issues that need to be prioritised:
i) public access to adult sites such as cyber cafe;
ii) child pornographic

I have seen people gaining access to cyber cafe and this should be curbed. On the other hand, child pornographic should never been allowed. The UK has done a great job in tackling child pornographic whereby many were arrested and charged for distributing and browsing the child pornographic and it would be great if the Malaysia government could do the same.
