Govt considering new law to tackle ticket scalping
JOHOR BARU: The Communications Ministry will hold discussions with the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry to address the growing issue of concert ticket scalping at inflated prices, says Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching. She said the latter ministry is currently reviewing the matter, including the possibility of introducing a Bill to tackle the matter. 'The Communications Ministry has also engaged with event organisers and ticketing companies to find the most suitable solution to this issue,' she told a press conference at the Johor leg of the Madani MSME Digital Grant Festival 2025 in Permas Jaya here yesterday. Teo said the problem is most common at high-profile international concerts, such as that of South Korean superstar G-Dragon, where soaring demand allows scalpers to resell tickets at heavily marked-up prices, reported Bernama. Last Friday, Teo chaired a meet ing with representatives from the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to address the growing concern of ticket scalping, which is hurting the country's entertainment industry. She said the session gathered input and proposals from agencies directly involved in monitoring and enforcing concert ticket sales, while also looking at examples from countries with anti-scalping laws. On a separate matter, Teo said MCMC removed 2,033 advertisements related to products and services not authorised by the Health Ministry and other agencies from the start of this year until Aug 1. She said the move followed 2,283 complaints received during the period, with the removal of such ads having been carried out since 2022. 'In 2022, MCMC received eight complaints and removed all related ads. In 2023, 439 complaints were received and 390 ads were removed. 'In 2024, MCMC received 3,312 complaints and took down 1,643 unauthorised online ads.' Teo said her ministry constantly works with the Health Ministry on false medicine or health service advertisements, as the latter has the expertise to identify such cases. 'When we receive a complaint from (them), MCMC will notify social media platform providers to take down the advertisement if it is unauthorised. 'However, if a complaint is received from the public, for example one involving fake medicines, we will refer it to the Health Ministry for verification before further action is taken.'

New cultural hub opens in Seoul to strengthen ties between South Korea and Asean
Visitors view displays at the inaugural exhibition, 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia,' held at the Korea Press Centre on Friday. - Asean-Korea Centre via The Korea Herald/ANN SEOUL: The Asean-Korea Centre has officially opened the Seoul Asean Hall, a new cultural hub for Asean-Korea exchange, on Friday (Aug 8), with an inaugural exhibition titled 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia.' The opening coincides with Asean Day, marking the 58th anniversary of Asean. Located on the first floor of the Korea Press Centre, the Seoul Asean Hall is designed as a multipurpose exhibition venue. It aims to highlight cooperation across culture, tourism and economy between South Korea and the Asean member states. Since 2009, the Asean-Korea Centre has maintained a small information corner on the eighth floor. The newly relocated and expanded space on the more accessible first floor signals a push to increase public visibility and greater access for all, said the Asean-Korea Centre Secretary-General Kim Jae-shin during the opening remarks. 'The Seoul Asean Hall is an open space designed to introduce the rich cultures of the Asean region to the South Korean public and to foster future-oriented cooperation based on mutual understanding," said Kim. According to the Asean-Korea Centre, all 10 Asean member states took part in planning and executing the exhibitions and programmes. 'I hope this space will serve as a key platform for Asean-Korea collaboration,' said Kim. 'Through visits to the Seoul Asean Hall, I also hope the Korean public will engage more closely with South-East Asia's rich cultural resources and deepen their understanding of the region.' The Seoul Asean Hall is divided into a permanent exhibition area showcasing cultural and tourism assets from the Asean countries and a special zone dedicated to thematic exhibits. Running through Feb. 13, 'Fruity Fruit: Colourful Days in South-East Asia' offers a sensory exploration of daily life in Southeast Asia and the region's heritage through the motif of tropical fruit. Once viewed as exotic and rare, South-East Asian fruits have become commonplace in South Korea, reflecting the growing trade and cultural exchange between the regions. The exhibition uses fruit as a metaphor for bridging tradition and modernity, locality and universality, through artworks, crafts, lifestyle items and digital media sourced from across Asean, according to the Asean-Korea Centre. Senior officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ambassadors and other representatives from Asean member states and leading figures from the cultural and business sectors attended the opening ceremony. The Asean-Korea Centre also operates Jeju Asean Hall at the Jeju International Peace Centre, which opened in 2022. - The Korea Herald/ANN
