Committed to position Malaysia as a globally competitive digital nation
"Modern problems require modern solutions."
Quoted by a veteran comedian, little did Dave Chapelle know this phrase is befitting today's technological adoption era where modernity has to be met with dynamic solutions, which MDEC and government agencies in Malaysia are working on endlessly to ensure a smooth-sailing national digital landscape.
The digital era has revolutionised how we live, work, and interact. It has unlocked unprecedented opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and global connectivity. The power of technology has brought about tremendous progress, empowering businesses to thrive, individuals to flourish, and economies to prosper.
In this issue of Digital Pulse, we showcase the distinctive qualities that set Malaysia apart from other Asia Pacific regions as an ideal destination for companies seeking to establish their footings. MDEC spoke to Siemens Energy representative, which aims to dominate the cybersecurity field by proposing critical cyber threat solutions to industries. Siemens Energy has recently set up a cybersecurity operations centre in Cyberjaya, explaining cybersecurity measures in energy and industrial sectors and their launch of collaborative programmes to attract local cybersecurity talents.
From artificial intelligence and blockchain to cloud computing and the Internet of Things, the digital economy is reshaping industries, transcending boundaries, and propelling us into an era of limitless possibilities, which makes it imperative for us to understand the immense potential risks that come hand-in-hand with this transformation.
We also dissect the efforts made in digital investment by MDEC in bringing Malaysia as the digital hub of ASEAN with the continuous push for digital transformation over the years. Internally, we have been working to boost Malaysia with innovative digital infrastructure and investor-friendly policies to cater to the growing needs of the digital ecosystem.
With great power comes great responsibility. We must constantly adapt to stay relevant to global changes to thrive in this digital era. MDEC is pivotal in driving success by providing the necessary digital infrastructure, tools, funds and expertise to support and enhance various aspects of the digital economy ecosystem.
