Abstract

We read with interest the statement by the government, which aims to combat online crime by formulating a policy through the collaboration of its Legal Affairs Division and the National Anti-Financial Crime Centre. Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman announced plans to amend laws and introduce a specific law. Our law, however, needs to be improved considering that cybercrimes keep transforming. Despite passing laws — like the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017, the National Anti-Financial Crime Centre Act 2019 and the Penal Code amendment for stalking, including cyberstalking — some loopholes need to be addressed.
