Menteri komunikasi berkata kerajaan tidak berkompromi dengan penerbitan drama dan filem yang menyentuh sensitiviti agama dalam karya mereka.
Haji Fahmi Fadzil, the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia's communication minister, disclosed that the Forum of Communication and Multimedia Content (CMCF) and the National Film Development Corporation of Malaysia (Finas) plan to hold a meeting with the production team and streaming platform iQIYI on the same day to discuss the content of the drama "Madu atau Racun." The controversy surrounding the series has raised concerns among the public due to its potential impact on religious and cultural sensitivities.
During a press briefing, Fahmi stated that the Ministry of Communications has asked CMCF and Finas to arrange the meeting with the production company and iQIYI to understand the contents of the drama. He added that Finas holds authority over film-related activities and distribution, while the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) is responsible for television broadcasting and communication.
Fahmi emphasized that the government will not compromise with any party producing content that touches on religious and cultural sensitivities. He reiterated that artistic freedom must be balanced with responsibility to respect religious values, social harmony, and cultural sensitivities, which are fundamental to national unity.
The communication minister affirmed that the government will take appropriate action if the assessment and investigation reveals any violation of regulations, guidelines, or provisions. CMCF and the parties involved will issue a follow-up statement after the meeting scheduled for the same day.
