    KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has stated that the operation of Starlink in Malaysia is in accordance with the international framework. The MCMC relies on the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio Regulations when making decisions related to spectrum allocation and interference management. It emphasizes that satellite services are global in nature and the Radio Regulations provide a global framework for coordinating and regulating these services. The framework outlines protection criteria and procedures for resolving interference disputes, and if any, the operation of Starlink in Malaysia is compliant with this framework.

    The statement was issued in response to concerns raised in a recent report by a tech portal regarding potential interference to existing telecommunications services and the coexistence study of Starlink. MCMC clarifies that there have been no complaints of interference to date. However, in the event of any interference, it will be handled through existing interference resolution mechanisms according to national and international frameworks.

    MCMC confirms that Starlink has been granted Malaysia Digital status, allowing it to operate in the country based on its current ownership status. Prior to granting the license, MCMC engaged with key stakeholders in several sessions to address their concerns and considerations. The decision was made after assessing the value and benefits that Starlink will bring to the country.

    The commission reiterates its commitment to safeguarding the public’s interests and ensuring that all telecommunications services, including those provided by Starlink, comply with regulatory standards. – Bernama
