Regulators such as the Malaysian Communications And Multimedia Commission (MCMC) must be made impartial if they are to function effectively, said Communications and Multimedia Minister Gobind Singh Deo.
In an interview with BFM radio this morning, Gobind said this could begin by ending the practice of using political appointees to head such organisations.
“In the regime before, we have a situation where the political appointees set on how certain things are done such as formulating policies.
“Political appointees in institutions such as MCMC should be removed,” he said.
