The Malaysia Competition Commission (MyCC) has embarked on an amendment exercise for the Competition Act 2010 and has launched an online public consultation to invite the public and relevant stakeholders to provide their opinions, views, inputs and feedback on the said proposed amendments.
This amendment exercise was undertaken by MyCC to make Malaysia’s competition law more extensive and in line with international practices and for MyCC to effectively perform its statutory function to promote and protect the process of competition in the market. The amendment of the Competition Act 2010 includes the amendment of provisions relating to the investigation and enforcement powers and procedures as well as appeal provisions, taking into account developments on the digital economy; and the introduction of a merger control regime.
