MASOC – Malaysian Airsoft Association.

MASOC – Malaysian Airsoft Association under its president Mr. Mohd Zamri Muhammad have done an excellent job in promoting airsoft sports and have been applying for airsoft to be legalised in Malaysia. They propose that airsoft players and guns be legally registered, controlled and monitored has already received the support of several ministers in the cabinet. The only reason that airsoft is not legal yet, is to have the Associations Registrar Commission and the Sport Commission to approve and recognized airsoft as an extreme sports and the association as the governance body. MASOC hopes that once airsoft is legalised and regulated, it may help to cut off smugglers from smuggling airsoft into Malaysia and to minimized the misused of airsoft in unhealthy and criminal activity. Indonesia has already practise the registration of airsoft players and guns as a means of controlling and monitoring. This has had a positive effect in creating a responsible airsoft community that respects the laws in order to keep the hobby legal. Philipines have enjoyed the sam benefits of legalising the sport. We hope one day, Malaysia will legalized airsoft. Airsoft can contribute to discipline, intergrity, patrotism to the country, leadership and teamwork, as these are the main values inculcate into an airsoft player.
