Fahmi said the minister’s remarks were worrying as they suggested that that any person producing video content, even for personal use on social media, was subject to the licensing requirement that also needed them to have companies with a paid up-up capital of RM50,000 each. “I asked earlier as a supplementary question, whether Dustin Pfundheller has a licence from Finas but it was not answered .
A check of the Finas website showed that among requirements for applicants of its filming licence was for them to be registered as owners of a private limited company with at least RM50,000 in paid-up capital.
