Really hope that Malaysia's bid to be the data center alley of SEA would be the check and balance to this new law for future gomen. In some aspects a broad oversight can be beneficial to check the influence of Big Tech without lengthly legislative process but we also don't want the gomen to blindly follow ccp's lead in building a firewall around us citizens.
