The House of Representatives of the Philippines has called on Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg to face the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) during a hearing on social media safety, according to the department, reported Xinhua.
The hearing will examine concerns over harmful content, platform accountability and online safety for Filipino users, it said.
The DICT said in a statement that Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, is lagging in protecting children. It requires Meta to implement safeguards, remove harmful content promptly, and cooperate with Philippine authorities.
