EUROCHAM Malaysia had the privilege to attend the Belanjawan 2024: Sesi Town Hall Ekonomi Digital with YB Fahmi Fadzil, where the future of Malaysia's digital economy was unveiled!
YB Fahmi Fadzil expressed optimism regarding 5G coverage, with expectations of reaching 30% by the end of this year. Remarkably, as of this month, coverage has already surged to an impressive 68%, with hopeful anticipation that by the year 2024, it will soar to 80%. Discussions also revolved around technology, data management, and the paramount importance of data privacy and cybersecurity.
The digital economy has emerged as a formidable contributor, accounting for over 23% of Malaysia's GDP. The ambitious goal is set for this sector to elevate its GDP contribution to an impressive 25.5% by the year 2025.
This Town Hall was a success, where industry leaders exchanged insights and ideas, fostering collaboration between Malaysia and the EU. Together, we're charting a course for a future where technology fuels economic growth and enhances the quality of life for all!
