To combat the illegal recording of movies in local cinemas, the industry in Malaysia has deployed a battalion of large, well-muscled fellows who are stationed at all points of entry to cinema halls nationwide. These intimidating characters, code-named “Mr. Security”, are employed solely to remind moviegoers that recording in cinemas is illegal.

At the top of the piracy pyramid, camcorders supply more than 90% of newly released movies that illegally end up on the Internet and in street markets around the world.

Apart from Mr. Security, MFACT also actively participate in National Intellectual Property Day and Consumer Day to educate consumers on video piracy in the market. Anti-Piracy trailers were also produce to alert the consumers on the movie piracy.
