Industry players are calling for stricter penalties against digital piracy, which they claim has caused them to suffer an estimated RM3bil loss annually.

“The penalty for those who use media boxes loaded with unauthorised apps is too light,” said Zahrin Aris, the honorary secretary of the Malaysian Film Producers Association , in a statement.

“The penalty should be heavier. The value of content being pirated is definitely higher than the fine of only RM30,000," he said. Lam Swee Kim, chief marketing officer in the product division of the Star Media Group said: “The penalty imposed should reflect how severe the act of piracy impacts the industry and the act of fuelling piracy, in terms of monetisation or remuneration should also be monitored and penalised."
