Abstract: Cyberbullying is a relatively new phenomenon that poses a serious problem, because anyone can become a victim of cyberbullying. Due to the special technical possibilities of social media, it can have long-term effects on the victims, especially on the well-being of young people. The aim of this study is to collect data on related topics such as demographic profiles, social media use, experiences of cyberbullying, attitudes towards cyberbullying and suggestions to curb cyberbullying in Malaysia. An online questionnaire survey was conducted with 50 respondents. The results show that bad things are done to the victims of cyberbullying, causing emotional disturbance and trauma to the victims. Rule utilitarianism and action utilitarianism are used in certain cases to solve the ethical problem of cyberbullying. Although there is no specific law against cyberbullying in Malaysia, there are certain laws such as the Computer Crimes Act 1997, the Communication and Multimedia Act 1998 and the Penal Code to combat cyberbullying. The solution has also been highlighted through awareness campaigns to prevent cyberbullying. For the concerned parties, developing concrete strategies to reduce cyberbullying among youths in Malaysia should be a major concern. [For the full proceedings, see ED654100.]
