Presently, Malaysia has no immediate plans to legislate. It will pursue this recourse when there is no other viable alternative. The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission is of the opinion that for legislation to be effective, anti-Spam laws in all countries must be of similar nature and standard so as to prevent Spammers from forum shopping. The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission also feels that legislative action would consequently be dependant on continuous co-operation between countries and legal systems to ensure that Spam received in one country will result in legal action being taken in another. Thus, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission will follow closely the development of countries that have enacted anti-Spam legislations.
