The Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism ministry has declared that any one selling items online directly via Facebook or Instagram must register themselves with the Companies Commission of Malaysia, else such sale is deemed illegal.
Responding to a question in the Dewan Negara today, its deputy minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah said such online traders must register themselves so as to protect consumers from being cheated or exploited by the traders, Bernama reported today.
"Under the new Consumer Protection Regulations (Online Commerce Transactions) 2012, online traders must display the name of their business, business/company registration number, email address and telephone number on their Facebook or Instagram," he was quoted as saying by Bernama.

ReplyDeleteSaya tengok ramai budak2 IPT yang buat biz ni sbb mereka ada smartphone atau laptop dan internet. Salah satu cara org mereka cari income. Jual tshirt dan kasut contohnya. Mungkin ada baik mendaftar agar mereka tidak menipu. Tapi yang sah2 menipu tak pun diambil tindakan. Semua buang kes... Tak cukup bukti. Tipu juta2. Bukan 20-30 ringgit...
