Malaysians who post clips of motorbike gangs doing dangerous things on the Internet will be prosecuted for inciting unrest and teasing police, a report said.
Minister Fu Ah Kiow said the authorities would crack down on such postings on YouTube and other websites.
"We have to stop this now as others could post more harmful materials which could threaten security and racial harmony," the New Straits Times quoted Fu as saying. "This is seen as provoking the police."
Malaysian authorities have started to get serious with motorcyclists who break the law, especially biker gangs known as Mat Rempit.
Media watchdogs have complained about the lawsuits, since they limit freedom of expression.
But Fu said Malaysians must be educated to tell the difference between truth and lies on the Internet.
"We are not out to censor the Internet, but those using cyberspace must realize that they can be prosecuted for misusing the Internet," Fu said.(AFP)
一則報導指出，在網路張貼飆車族危險花招影片的馬來西亞人，會因製造社會不安與奚落警方而遭起訴。
馬來西亞國內安全部副部長胡亞橋表示，相關單位將會查緝在YouTube與其他網站的這些張貼行為。
「他人可能會張貼威脅到治安與種族和諧的更危害題材，我們必須馬上制止。」《新海峽時報》引述胡亞橋的話說︰「這被視為挑釁警方。」
馬來西亞當局已開始查緝觸法的機車騎士，尤其是「Mat Rempit（非法飆車者）」的飆車族。
由於這些法案限制人民的表達自由，媒體監督團體已提出抗議。
不過，胡亞橋表示，馬來西亞人民必須被教導來明辨網路上的真實與謊言。
他說︰「我們不能審查網路，但網際使用者必須明白自己可能因濫用網路而受審。」 （翻譯︰賴美君）
