Introducing the “Malaysian Digital Economic Blueprint” is an initiative by the government to improve the digital infrastructure for faster and wider internet connectivity.<\/p>\n

The planning worth RM56 billion will have a 10-year plan aimed at developing the country’s digital economy.<\/p>\n

Launched on the 19th of February, it aims to achieve 100% household access to the internet – enabling students to access online learning and create 500,000 new jobs by 2025.<\/p>\n
