This paper has conducted a critical and comprehensive study on the literature review aiming to answer several inquiries about utilization of cyberspace by terrorist groups and the applicability of Malaysian law on terrorism. The meaning, characteristics and goals of cyber terrorism will be highlighted. Furthermore, this paper will clarify how terrorist groups invade the cyberspace with highlighting on “ISIS” as an example. In addition, this paper will indicate how the Malaysian Law addresses the terrorism. This paper has proved that the terrorist groups become more sophisticated and complex by adopting the cyberspace. Moreover, this paper discloses how terrorist groups exploit the cyberspace. Even if, Malaysian law adopts many measures and precautions to counter terrorism, but, it still needs more efforts to deal with terrorism, by regulating the “Bitcoins”, introducing a clear definition about the meaning of "lethal device” to encompass harm programs and viruses, and distinguishing between clicking "like" or sharing the terrorist items with use explicit words to glorify the terrorism and without use any explicit glorification words. The lawgiver must take into consideration the possession of terrorist items or publications for academic and innocent purposes. Finally, under SOSMA, the power to intercept the communications must be subjected on the judicial oversight and the power of arrest must be based on objective test.

This would enable Malaysians to choose where to bring their disputes and ideally, the Shari’ah legal system will be the preferred choice as it embodies a complete system that ensures justice and fairness for all. This reflects the spirit of the Shari’ah as Rahmatan lil alamin

The concept of Plea Bargaining which has been known and applied in several countries will also be included in Article 198 paragraph (5) and 199 of the Draft of Criminal Procedure Code (RKUHAP) in Indonesia which will be made as law. Although non explicit verb is named as Plea Bargaining, the spirit of these articles are similar to the plea bargaining system which has been practiced in many countries and is considered successful in overcoming the criminal case backlog in courts, therefore the study uses comparative study of plea bargaining system in several countries and also uses normative research method and carried out by using the statutory approach through a review of laws and regulations as well as regulations relating to the issue discussed. Legal materials are obtained from the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) and the Draft of Criminal Procedure Code (RKUHAP) which has been in the final discussion at the House of Representatives and Government, and in addition, the secondary legal materials are obtained from books, journals and other literature. Meanwhile, the data collection technique used is a library research by examining legal materials relevant to the research discussion.

Is there anything we should be worried about? The isolation, restricted movement, disease control measures, tracking apps, contact tracing, work-from-home, online learning… and the list goes on. All these dots when connecting to each other will reveal that privacy concern is real and its protection can be a critical game-changer. Just in time to test the efficiency of the Personal Data Protection law. This is the gist of my keynote presented at the Sixth International Conference on Internet Applications, Protocols and Services (NETAPPS2020).

He said this must be strengthened as e-learning is the future of education. Teachers and lecturers must develop their skills with this new normal. With the necessary skills and knowledge, RTL will not be less fun and interesting. However, being unfamiliar with how technology works may lead to some legal complications. Therefore in conducting RTL, educators also need to be careful so as not to end up in a legal mess with potential liabilities
