PIKOM and MNCC is main drive behind this bill.

"And yes, of course this didn't start from the government -- its factions like MNCC and PIKOM that have pushed it."


PIKOM list of council members.

Hidden objectives of CPB2011

1. Rent seeking, make money from IT industry, teaming up with industry Trojans like PIKOM and MNCC.
2. Control dissent by restricting knowledge workers who participate in dissent as employees for opposition.
3. Rob the lucrative IT sector from the private industry and put them in the hands of cronies, aka Bumiputra-ism.
4. Form an elite gateway and eliminate competition from other IT competitors, mainly non-grads, work with govt to accomplish this. (point 1)

Foreign IT corporations and local Unis that are involved that provides training and against Opensource Software may have interests/hand in this.

It's time for IT corporations such as Microsoft, Sun/Oracle to come out with official statement.

Note: This law is prone to abuse, corruption and possibly 'quota'. Please inform everyone in IT field. You cannot run an IT company anymore without government approval.

New draft law restricts unregistered IT professional from providing IT services of ANY kind at all.

Fine = 20,000 ringgit or 6 months jail.


The license must be applied, but that means, the society can target recipient based on crony or race... especially Bumiputra.

Page 46...



Restriction on employment of unregistered person to provide Computing Services

34. No CNII entities or person shall employ a person, sole proprietorship, partnership or body corporate, other than aRegistered Computing Practitioner or Registered Computing Professiona lor Registered Computing Services Provider practice, to perform Computing Services



Page 48..

General penalty

36. (1) Any person, sole proprietorship, partnership or body corporate who contravenes this Act or any regulations made there under shall be guilty of an offence and shall,where no penalty is expressly provided therefore, be liable, on conviction,to a fine not exceeding twenty thousand ringgit (RM20,000) or imprisonment not more than six months or both.





------------------------------------- Edited to include extra critical information -----------------------------------------







KEYWORD is CNII. They are not defined properly in the bill. Here's how it goes.

On page 7.

Critical National Information Infrastructure
(CNII)”refers to those assets, systems and functions that are vital to the nation that their incapacity or destruction would have a devastating impact on National economic strength or National image or National defense and security or Government capability to function or Public health and safety.

Sounds like only applies to government right? NO!!


Here's the FULL industry that is defined in the 2nd half !

http://cnii.cybersecurity.org.my/main/about.html


The CNII sectors are:

National Defence & Security
Banking & Finance
Information & Communications <---- All of you working in IT doing web/mobile apps/sites..
Energy
Transportation
Water
Health Services
Government <------------ This is the impression you get in the bill, but look at the rest of them besides this!
Emergency Services
Food & Agriculture



This basically covers ALL industries with major IT jobs and what you have here is a Communist style central governance.

Don't go believe those who keep saying CNII applies only to Government!

CNII definition in the bill is basically a


TROJAN HORSE BLANK CHEQUE where they can REDEFINE it outside the bill AS AND WHEN THEY WISH TO COVER ANY NEW INDUSTRIES.

New link for draft you can comment.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j1VC50E...?hl=en_US&pli=1

Anyone caught working as Software Developer, diploma or degree or not, without being licensed by government, will be fined 20k or jailed 6 months.


The key is, the criteria for licensing would be very vague and prone to abuse.


Malaysia is probably the other country to implement this law other than Nigeria (pariah country)

....wow nvm I'll read this properly first before flying to rage

I see Rais got mentioned...

I do not support this law.

It would put IT goons on par with engineers with legal registration and powers to commit to public projects.

inb4 ini fitnah PR...

agreed 100%

no more dev for hobby

must be rais yatim job, he must be senile to consider this!!!

Get ready to go back to stone age. Siao law. IT is the fastest moving subject and they want to have this law? Bodoh! It is already hard to get GOOD IT people, u want to impose this law. Better be a snatch thief.

so that's mean indie developers will go jail too?

we are going to the pariah stage

well, thats the only benefit I see from this law.

no more yes yes, and geleng geleng kepala.

Alright, now I can consider gtfo from this soon to be shithole for IT people

habis. Better teach children how to be snatch thief and robber.

How about we discuss on how to get the license ?

IT is strongly fuelled by passion. Wow, just wow.

Ahli kuat UMNO?

Untuk kelulusan cepat dan tiada songeh, pemohon mesti bumiputera.

Mana BN trooper, please tell me you're supporting this

Is this real life ?

The only way i see it is that Govt wants more Bumi..cough..Umno..cough .. quota, since they will be the ones approving

Stupid really.

Why the heck didn't i join my ex-boss when he offered me to work in Singapore (

ah bumiputera pun dianak-tiri

melainkan kroni

imagine if the license per head is like 5K

+9001

more songlap

we might not be able to buy hard disk/mobo/proc/ram based on international market price lo once this bill approved

I remember there is something to reduce tax for those IT ppl who registered to PM or something, maybe that is somehow related ?

Satu lagi projek BN?

on the bright side ... qualified IT professional will be treated as a respectable IT professional with a much more reasonable wages.

is this even real? im rubbing my eyes

on the dark side, the empire control all the licenses, they decide who can apply and who cant, may the force be with you.

well, if it is done in a proper manner.... ?

Which crap by the govt has ever been done in a proper manner?

thank goodness i move away from IT industry 2 years ago..

zzzz , good new crap thing from our beloved gov , habis side income

lowyat kena serah kpd bumiputra

wtf...

so, se7en, how?

salah! serah kat bangla. "i help u, u help me"

wow is this serious? so much for the future of Malaysia, I've just graduated in this field and now this news has seriously made me reconsider my option of coming back to Malaysia. 1 lagi Project Barisan National. This is probably done so that they can control the INTERNET too. Wow just wow just when i though the government couldn't be anymore stupid.

I don't see this brings benefits to the IT professional.

We might have to pay to get certified in the future

Goodbye Malaysia IT industry

another bodohland great

its time to throw out BN before more shits hit the fan..

This is a way they consolidate and steal industries from private companies to give to their own cronies.

BN must go down in the next GE.

This bill shall not pass!

If BN wins next GE, that pretty much sums up our future. All of our future. Bleak
