One-nation approach towards attracting digital investments and solidifying Malaysia’s position as the digital hub of ASEAN


One-nation approach towards attracting digital investments and solidifying Malaysia’s position as the digital hub of ASEAN


National efforts to accelerate digital investments in Malaysia are driven by MDEC and the Malaysian Ministry of Communications and Multimedia (K-KOMM) as part of a national effort to establish Malaysia as the digital hub of ASEAN, particularly in accelerating economic recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic. 

 


These results indicate that the nation is on track to achieve the RM70 billion target of investments in digitalisation by 2025, as set by the Malaysia Digital Economy Blueprint (MyDIGITAL). 


Digital investments are a key aspect of Malaysia’s economic recovery. They create high-knowledge jobs and help accelerate innovations and adoption of Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies that will further boost Malaysia’s digital economy and as a digital nation. 




Achieving Malaysia’s digital investment aspirations is an effort that will take an entire nation. K-KOMM and MDEC seek to accelerate digital investments by galvanising meaningful public-private partnerships through the enhanced framework, revamped incentives, and catalytic programmes of Malaysia Digital, the initiative to succeed MSC Malaysia.
