PM justifies govt appeal against court decision over CMA provisions


Prime Minister Ibrahim today defended the government’s appeal against a court ruling that deemed the terms “offensive” and “annoy” in the earlier version of Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 (CMA) as unconstitutional.

Free Malaysia Today reported as saying that institutional reforms could not be solely based on court decisions but must be holistically studied before implementation.
