COMPANY PROFILE

With the birth and explosion of a new convergent communications and multimedia industry in Malaysia in the mid-1990s, a new paradigm requiring innovative approaches in media policies and regulation became essential. In line with this, Malaysia adopted a convergence regulation model for the communications and multimedia industry in November 1998. Two key legislations were enacted to support this new regulatory model: the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, which established a new regulatory licensing framework for the industry, and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission Act 1998, which created the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) as the new regulatory body.

The Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 came into effect on April 1, 1999, leading to the repeal of the Telecommunications Act 1950 and the Broadcasting Act 1988. The 10 national policy objectives form the regulatory basis of MCMC’s framework, encompassing economic regulation, technical regulation, consumer protection, and social regulation. On November 1, 2001, MCMC also assumed the regulatory functions of the Postal Services Act 2012 and the Digital Signature Act 1997.

At MCMC, we are continuously seeking experienced and qualified professionals to join our dynamic team. If you are talented, enthusiastic, and energetic, and wish to contribute to the growth of the communications and multimedia industry, we want to hear from you.

We value innovation, originality, and encourage our employees to explore their creativity and talents. At the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, we provide a conducive environment for personal development and growth.
