Zahid: Centre to counter terrorism digitally to be set up in Malaysia this year

The Deputy Prime Minister said Malaysia was chosen to establish the centre, due to the country’s commitment to combat terrorism through introducing new laws as well as providing avenues for rehabilitation and re-radicalisation of militants. “Recruitment of militants is being done through social media, especially by the Islamic State (IS) terror group.

This messaging centre will be vital in the effort to fight the spread of IS propaganda," said Dr Ahmad Zahid. He added that the establishment of the centre would use a template that is similar to what is being used in the United States and United Arab Emirates. Dr Ahmad Zahid told a press conference at the Putra World Trade Centre here on Wednesday that the centre would be set up within the year. Tags / Keywords: Zahid Hamidi, Terrorism, Security.
