It came as a surprise to most Malaysians that now the Ministry of Health will implement body cameras on their officials to have more transparency. Netizens are not too pleased with this as they are asking questions about the other government enforcers on whether they too will be having it or not.
Body Cameras, future of transparency
Questions about body cameras on policemen, custom officials and firefighters having them have risen. However, the difference is that the Ministry of Health took their own initiative to implement this on their own. Netizens now want the other officials to have them as well.
Others who do not trust the police in this country insist that they should have it in order to provide full transparency. Furthermore, there were questions on the camera itself, if it’s always turned on or whether it can be turned off. If it can be turned off, netizens stated that it is just a waste of time.
