Govt supports media, not just to improve press freedom ranking: Fahmi


The government’s goal is not merely to see Malaysia improve in the Press Freedom Index, but more importantly, to support media practitioners facing the evolution of artificial intelligence (AI), said Communications Minister Fadzil.

He said that media practitioners are dealing with various urgent challenges, including employment issues, welfare concerns, and the rise of AI, which raises fears over whether it could replace the role of journalists.
