PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) says it has unblocked the Sarawak Report and Medium now that the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) report has been made public. The MCMC started blocking Sarawak Report on July 2015 following complaints that the site was posting unsubstantiated information despite an ongoing investigation by a 1MDB special task force. In a post on its Facebook page, the MCMC said any action to block websites would be in-line with the laws of the country. It also explained that it had blocked the GE14 results page live.undi.info site on polling night. In this case, instead of going to the GE14 results page, visitors were sent to a site displaying MCMC’s notice.
