Facebook has appointed local experts who understand the Bangla language, culture and market to combat the spread of extremist ideology through the platform in Bangladesh.
Nawab Osman, head of counter-terrorism and dangerous organisations in the Asia Pacific region at Facebook`s parent Meta, has disclosed the matter in a meeting on Monday.
Admitting that more action should be taken by the social media platform to check the extreme ideological expression of people, he said: "What is being seen in the case of Bangladesh on our platform
is a reflection of the offline reality here ."
He said that Meta`s own technology and algorithms are playing an important role in combating extremism.
