Details

To power a tech-driven economy by 2030, the Malaysian Govt. has launched a 10-year digital economy blueprint called MyDIGITAL. The datacentre & cloud industry has emerged as the key enabler for realizing this vision.

With all the favourable conditions like cost-competitive power availability, easy access to skilled employees, abundant renewable energy along with a relatively cheaper access to land and construction costs in the ASEAN region, the Malaysian datacentre market size is set to witness $1.4 billion investment by 2026. The country’s public cloud market alone has reached $643.4 million, making it the second-biggest cloud market in Southeast Asia.

ASEAN's New Regional Hub for DC & CLOUD

Malaysia has surfaced as a mature location for renewable energy in ASEAN and the country’s connectivity to the rest of the region provides an additional edge.

Singapore has been the corporate and financial hub in Southeast Asia for the past 30 years but with factors like surging demand in network diversity, data recovery and cost-competitive labour sourcing and market, Malaysia has emerged as the ideal location to meet the growing Datacentre & Cloud requirements.
