AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Under-16 Social Media Ban: Malaysia is enforcing an Australian-style ban on social media accounts for children under 16 nationwide as part of an online safety push, with age checks and tighter controls coming into force. Royal Birthday & National Unity: King Sultan Ibrahim used his official birthday investiture address to stress Rukun Negara principles, warning that those who reject them are unfit to be Malaysian citizens, while also urging politicians to avoid provocation and misuse of social media and AI. Energy & Policy Updates: The government clarified the BUDI95 petrol subsidy quota after a reported 150-litre limit appeared during system maintenance, saying the monthly cap remains 200 litres for eligible users. Public Safety & Tragedies: A nine-year-old boy died after a suspected fall from an apartment’s 13th floor in Ampang, while overseas, heavy rains in Laos are hampering the search for two missing villagers trapped in a flooded cave after five others were rescued. Local Life & Culture: In Mersing, “Mak Yah” keeps nasi dagang at RM2 per packet for over a decade despite rising costs, highlighting how small vendors cope with the current economic climate.
