PUTRAJAYA, The government will take stern action against individuals who post offensive, intimidating and outrageous comments on social media platforms, including WhatsApp, said Minister of Communications Fahmi Fadzil. Speaking at the Ministry of Communications' monthly assembly here today, he also revealed that there has been the dissemination of immoral and intimidating statements, including death threats against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. 'After the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump in the United States, there have been some immoral and criminally intimidating statements being circulated on WhatsApp. 'Some said that the ones who should have been shot were not just there (in the US), they hinted at a threat of violence, a criminal threat, a death threat against the prime minister. It's okay to have different opinions, but don't go to the extreme. That's outrageous,' he said. Meanwhile, Fahmi said he will meet with editors-in-chief of the Malaysia's media industry so on following the extreme comments on the news posted on their respective social media platforms.
