Abstract

This paper examines the legal and regulatory framework governing online broadcasting in
Malaysia. The purpose of this study is to explore and analyse the existing legal system
concerning online broadcasting services in Malaysia with a view to identifying the loopholes
and suggesting recommendations for possible solution. The study uses a legal and doctrinal
research methodology followed by an analytical approach. In identifying and interpreting data
both primary and secondary legal sources are considered. The study reveals that the current
legal framework regulating online broadcasting services in Malaysia is not well structured and,
in most cases, the online broadcasting contents do not comply with the existing laws and
regulations of Malaysia. Hence, a comprehensive legislation is indispensable for Malaysia to
regulate the online broadcasting services diligently and efficiently
