Perkasa backs Rais’ proposed Facebook substitute, wants user details recorded
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 — Malay rights group Perkasa today backed a former minister’s proposal for Malaysia to create a local Facebook alternative following China’s footsteps, saying this will help suppress seditious remarks such as racial and religious insults.
Perkasa secretary-general Syed Hassan Syed Ali also suggested that users of the popular social network be made to register in order to remove all anonymity.
“This would be able to stop all insults against any religion and race,” Syed Hassan told Malay Mail Online today.
“Users should also provide accurate personal details when registering with ‘FB Malaysia.’ This will make all parties afraid of doing wrong on Facebook. They will be more responsible,” the senior leader of the Malay rights group added.

American business magazine Forbes said in a 2012 article that while China does not allow access to Facebook, along with other websites such as YouTube and Twitter, there are two social networking sites operating in the country: Renren and Sina Weibo.
Both sites abide by China’s strict censorship of online content, blocking and deleting information that does not conform with the Chinese government’s guidelines.

Rais: Create own ‘Facebook’ to curb sedition

Malaysia can create its own social website like ‘Facebook’ as introduced in China for its own people in the effort to control seditious statements which could threaten public order, said Social and Cultural Affairs Advisor to the Government, Rais Yatim.
Apart from that, Rais who was former Information, Communication and Culture Minister said the authorities should be given the power to block the social website for a short time until an investigation is conducted against the individual concerned.
“Officially, I have presented the proposal to the government and the Attorney-General. It is up to them.
“What has been carried out in China in creating its own Facebook, can also be done by us and we can take preventive measures faster,” he said.
He was speaking to reporters after a Merdeka appreciation programme organised by the Rural and Regional Ministry in conjunction with the 57th Merdeka Day today.
