It is most refreshing to learn that now Malaysians do know the so called “governance structure” that exist in MCMC on their procurement policies. Of course prior to this, you all and yours truly are not privy to such policies nor we rub shoulders with the mighty powers within MCMC.
Malaysia has a Malaysia Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). MCMC has proudly stated that “its commitment to the successful implementation of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 (CMA) is unwavering and outlined in its client’s charter, HERE.

He began with thanking MPs for bring up questions relating to his ministry. He said that he will be replying to the questions on IT/internet connectivity for the rural area, no reception of RTM TV programes in certain areas in Sarawak and Sabah, Astro and USP Fund.
I am shocked to have read in Rockybru and the NST’s report that the latest balance in the USP Fund is only RM400 million! The Deputy Minister of Information, Multimedia and Culture YB Datuk Salang Gandum on 25-10-2010 said here that no USP Fund had been spent. one of them must be lying. The Deputy … Read more

Of late, the Malaysian Communication & Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has been in the news for reasons best known to itself. The blogger, Rockybru, has been investigated by MCMC for one of his postings and his “Ferrari” was also detained. YB Datuk Seri Utama Dr Rais Yatim, Minister of Information, Communication and Culture has lodged a police report on Rockybu’s said posting. This was an unprecedented act. Since this matter is now being investigated by MCMC and the police cyber crime will have to be also involved sooner or later. So far no MACC report has been lodged. Too complicated for me!
Penerangan Komunikasi dan Kebudayaan melaporkan pada polis atas artikel Rockybru. Ini adalah perkara yang diluar jangkaan. Oleh kerana perkara ini sedang dalam siasatan oleh MCMC dan polis jenayah siber akan terlibat juga. sehingga kini, tiada laporan dari MACC yang dilaporkan. Perkara tersebut terlalu rumit bagi saya!.
