MTRCB to co-regulate content with video streaming services

The governing agency for television and movies is reported to be coordinating closely with video streaming providers.

MTRCB chairperson Rachel Arenas said that the services reached out to them regarding the laws they should abide by. 

And while MTRCB is still drafting the guidelines, they had asked them to apply the PH rating system for television and movies: PG, R-13, SPG, R-16, R-18, X.

This will see video streaming services rate content according to appropriateness.
