Digital and technology to drive nation's development for 12MP: MDEC. [Newspaper] (2021)
Abstract
CYBERJAYA: Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) welcomes the emphasis on digital and technology for the nation's development in the Twelfth Malaysia Plan (12MP) announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob yesterday. The 12MP also includes the positioning of Malaysia as the Asean digital centre, given the country's strong capability in cybersecurity solutions and digital content products. "The focus on digitalising MSMEs and to position Malaysia as the ASEAN digital centre through the 12MP reaffirms the impact of MDEC's twin initiatives of #SayaDigital and Malaysia Heart of Digital Asean," said MDEC's chief executive officer, Mahadhir Aziz in a statement released by MDEC. The five-year plan (2021–2025), themed "A Prosperous, Inclusive, Sustainable Malaysia" - aims to steer Malaysia out of the Covid-19 pandemic effect and put the economy back on track. Digitalising micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to broaden market access and facilitating strategic and quality digital investment will be the focus and one of the main efforts put forth in order to achieve this.
