Abstract

Freedom of speech and expression are characteristics of a democratic country whose implementation is guaranteed by the United Nations Constitution and the Declaration of Human Rights. John Stuart Mill's theory states, the wider freedom of expression is opened in a society, the society will be more advanced and developed. In the Declaration of Human Rights, these two freedoms (freedom of speech and expression) are the basic rights of every citizen, whose implementation is regulated according to applicable regulations. This paper attempts to study the conception of freedom of speech and express opinions in two different laws, namely Indonesia and Malaysia, by using a normative legal approach, which analyses legally various laws and regulations in both countries, and interprets data based on theories to explain freedom of speech and expression from different points of view.
